THEATRE + COMEDY

Mildred’s Umbrella Theater Company presents Night of the Giant, a world premiere by resident playwright, John Harvey. The play features an original score by local composer Elliot Cole.

Evening begins to fall. Lamps are lit, a child walks outside with a saw, and two sisters in a broken-down house make a ham sandwich for their father who sits on a couch--tied and bagged. A small band of musicians chained in the dining room play waltzes, while birds at he windows watch and judge. Questions are asked. Stories told.

But as light bulbs begin to fail, who will survive the night?

Your son's in the dumpster, your daughters have you tied up, and oh, yes there's that business of the birds....
