Lakeboat and Prairie du Chien By David Mamet Directed by Abbey Wright Designer Helen Goddard Lighting Designer Emma Chapman Assistant Lighting Designer Josh Carr Composer and Musician Tristan Parkes
Lakeboat – It is ship worker Dale’s first day on board the Lakeboat. The tall tale of his predecessor’s disappearance whips through the crew, as Dale discovers their mundane lives and fantastic dreams. Prairie du Chien – In a claustrophobic railroad car rolling through the night, violent tales of obsession, jealousy and death unfold as passengers while away their long journey across Prairie du Chien. An intriguing double-bill of rarely performed plays from acclaimed American writer David Mamet, winner of a Pulitzer prize and Tony Award nomination for Glengarry Glen Ross and Speed-the-Plow, and Academy Award nominations for The Verdict and Wag the Dog.
