Open Lab Collective presents
TWO DAYS 'TIL DAWN
Written by Tyler Ham Pong
Directed by Laura Sisskin-Fernández
"The line between inspiration and insanity."
Two Days 'til Dawn follows a troubled writer, who risks his grasp on reality in search of inspiration. Disconnecting from his family, and with potetially more at stake, he seeks salvation through the advice given by the ghosts of three literary figures.
Continuing Tyler Ham Pong's trend of hyper aware dialogue and analysis of the human condition, Two Days 'til Dawn, is "not only an expression of art as life, but a presentation of art created in life," according to the director, Laura Sisskin-Fernández. Harnessing elements of dream, memory and all of life's promises -- this play is a psychological tour de force not to be missed!
Two Days 'til Dawn stars Anthony Ames, Mary Monahan, Geoffrey Pomeroy and Jillian K. Waters.
Costume Designer/Assistant Director is Crys Huyett. Lighting Designers are Tracy Wertheimer and Jane Slade. Sound Designer is Danny Madden. Choreographer is Bronwen Carson.
Two Days 'til Dawn will have its premiere on June 8, presented as part of the Planet Connections Theatre Festivity at the Gene Frankel Theatre.
