The K of D, an urban legend

Balagan Theatre
Seattle, WA

"They're called urban legends, those things that get started when a bunch of people put their heads together and talk real low and real fast...." This particular legend begins one hot, sticky summer in a desolate corner of Ohio when the local teenagers begin to notice some startling occurrences around their small town. It's not just the scattered corpses of field mice that've got their attention, but a specter-like bird has appeared on their lake, and they suspect Skinny Charlotte McGraw might be the cause. She stopped speaking months ago, and there's reason to believe she may have learned a frightening new skill.

THE K OF D is a summertime ghost story about redemption, a rusty blue Dodge, and a young girl's haunting kiss. This luminous new script by LAURA SCHELLHARDT was the winner of ACT Theatre's 2006 New Play Award and is produced with the support of ACT's Central Heating lab. RENATA FRIEDMAN brings an entire town to life under the direction of BRADEN ABRAHAM in this devilishly droll solo show. (1 hour, 45 minutes, including intermission)
