A Pier Drawn in Chalk

A Pier Drawn In Chalk is a play based on the mythology of women in water. After pouring through fairy tales and legends, we've created a new folk tale, complete with witches and monsters and a journey of epic proportions! Audiences join Mira, a young woman born on an island plagued by sea monsters and gifted with a voice to soothe them, as she journeys the world and discovers just how deep the ocean, and the soul, is. The play questions just how far a person can expand the power of a voice in a world sunk in fear.

The story was concepted and written by Cassandra West. After months of workshopping, editing, crafting and honing, we're ready to make the transition from page to stage. Director Paul Markert and Choreographer Joey Maran joined the team to do just that. We've compiled a fantastic cast, pulled in a phenomenal designer and are poised to bring to life a play which promises beautiful imagery, heart-wrenching music and a protagonist who for the love of god, just wants her mother to be happy.
