NOW ONSTAGE AT CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM:
"WOLVES" -- A PREDATORY URBAN FAIRY TALE FOR ADULTS.
THIS MODERN RE-IMAGINING OF RED RIDING HOOD IN THE BIG BAD CITY IS DARKLY
COMIC AND, LIKE THOSE FAIRY TALES OF OLD, GLEEFULLY GORY.
WOLVES takes place during a long and eventful night at the apartment of
Ben and Jack. Ben has recently moved from a small town to the big city,
where he develops a full-blown paranoia about the place where he lives,
which he thinks of as the deep, dark forest, and has an outrageous fear
of the wolves that prowl it. To taunt the clingy, jealous Ben, Jack
brings home a wolf from a bar one night. Though a series of
misunderstandings, things turn violent (an axe is involved) and its up to
the sardonic female narrator to guide us through to the end of this
postmodern fracturing of the Red Riding Hood yarn.
WOLVES is directed by convergence-continuums Cory Molner and features
company actors Beau Reinker and Eric Sever, and con-con newcomers Wesley
Allen and Theresa Pedone.
WOLVES runs Thu-Sat at 8 pm through May 30 at the Liminis theater, 2438
Scranton Rd. Tickets are $15 general admission, $12 seniors (65+), $10
students. Reservations and information at
http://www.convergence-continuum.org and 216-687-0074.
