FALLEN

This powerful new work, inspired by William Golding's beloved novel, Lord of the Flies, tells the gut-wrenching tale of a group of school girls, struggling for survival, after a plane crash leaves them stranded on an uninhabited island. This provocative new play was developed through a unique and innovative improvisational process, which included all nine actors featured in the upcoming production. FALLEN is a human story that examines our connection to civilization and each other. It explores the potential for darkness and disorder that lurks within us all. In an age of natural disasters, unforeseeable tragedy, and questionable government policies, we are faced with a world full of uncertainty. In FALLEN, as in our world today, this uncertainty breeds fear, greed and a ruthless drive for power. The play explores themes that are both timeless and timely, such as human nature, gender, peer dynamics, power, and government.
