WISHHOUNDS (FORMERLY THEATRE LABYRINTH) OPEN THEIR NEWEST WORK, THE
HIDDEN TWIN: AN AMERICAN ROMANCE, FRIDAY, AUGUST 17 AT 8PM, AT PILGRIM
CHURCH
An unorthodox book steers a young historian into the circle of an
antiquarian cult, whose ritual reenactments threaten to shatter her
conception of Americaís beginnings. With evocative physicality, haunting
songs, and an adventurous narrative The Hidden Twin brings to life a
world inspired by the writings of Nathaniel Hawthorne, Washington
Irving, Alexis de Tocqueville, and the Founding Fathers. The Hidden Twin
re-examines the core values, which underlie (or undermine) contemporary
American society. Through reinventing the past, this original theatrical
work challenges us to reinvent the present, so that the future might not
be blindly drawn down by an ìuninquisitiveî acceptance of the status
quo.
The Cleveland run of The Hidden Twin follows a world premiere at The
Catskills Festival of New Theatre in New York and in September the piece
will tour to Philadelphia. The performance features the ensemble of
Tracy Broyles, Holly Holsinger, Brett Keyser, Kristie Lang, Mariah Sage
Leeds, and Rebecca Spencer. The Hidden Twin is directed by locally and
nationally acclaimed director, Raymond Bobgan.
Wishhounds is the new name of the group of artists who formerly
comprised Theatre Labyrinth. Wishhounds is committed to long-term
collaboration as an ensemble, that creates original work springing from
group process. In the past six years the group has created eight
original full productions and has toured nationally and internationally.
The Hidden Twin plays August 17-20 (Thursday through Monday)
and August 23 - 25 (Thursday through Saturday) at Pilgrim Congregational
Church.
Tickets are $16 on Friday and Saturday,
$8 on Thursday and Sunday and
Free on Monday.
Reservations can be made by calling (216) 761-4851.
Seating is limited. Absolutely no late seating.
Pilgrim Church is located at 2592 West 14th Street in the Tremont
neighborhood.
