Fiasco Theater presents an OPEN YOUR EARS reading of
by Devin E. Haqq
a new adaptation of the Japanese ghost story Botan Dōrō
directed by Paul L. Coffey
May 9th @ 7 PM
22 East 30th St NYC
Houghton Hall Arts | Jefferson Studio
A loyal servant, a pair of star-crossed lovers and the blurred lines between this world and the next collide in this Southern Gothic tale. Inspired by the 17th century Japanese ghost story Botan Dōrō, Devin E. Haqq’s new play transplants the action to Reconstruction-era Louisiana in a story of betrayal, greed and a truly eternal love. Can any good ever come from a deal with the devil?
Tickets: Suggested Donation of $10.
THE PEONY LANTERN
Fiasco’s OPEN YOUR EARS (OYE) reading series is the first time Fiasco gets to hear a show read in full for an audience. With an emphasis on language, clarity, and content, OYE is often the first stop for a new Fiasco show, and a place for audiences to get in on the ground floor of our project pipeline.
