The Pitchforks A World Premiere by Andrew Kramer Opens October 4th at convergence-continuum The camera holds on a lingering shot of the buzzing neon sign and you know exactly where we’re at - a crappy roadside motel. A group of old friends reuniting to escape their wife and life. But as the sun sets and the heat rises, old ghosts begin to walk among the living. Asking questions about queer representation in pop culture, The Pitchforks is a tender love-letter to and vicious indictment of horror movies and the people who love (and hate) (and make) them. *ANDREW KRAMER* (He/His/Him) is a queer playwright from Cleveland, OH. He is a graduate of Ball State University’s Department of Theatre & Dance and a proud alumni of the Emerging Writer’s Group at The Public Theatre.

He was a finalist for the Forward Flux’s New American Plays Commission. His work has been seen in Cleveland, Indianapolis, Chicago, Brooklyn, Kansas City, Lincoln, Louisville, Nashville, Houston, Williamsburg VA, New York City, Sacramento, Washington D.C, Cairns Australia and Bucharest Romania. *“Dark, sexy, haunting. Never lets you get comfortable while it drives to some killer, unexpected locations.”“Wow. This play just fearlessly broke rules and took some major turns that I think can only be accomplished onstage.”* The Pitchforks features Logan Andrews, Brandon Alexander-Smith, David Lenahan, Brandon Briggs and David L Munnell. Get to meet the cast below! The Pitchforks contains adult themes and content. The Pitchforks A World Premiere by Andrew Kramer Thu-Sat at 8 p.m. October 4th through October 26th Tickets are $23 general admission, $18 seniors (65+), $18 students. for tickets please visit: www.convergence-continuum.org SPECIAL DATES: *October 17 *| *Grave Expectations Hearse Night* convergence-continuum has partnered with Grave Expectations for one night only!
