EverScape

"With a truly ingenious perspective on human interaction and escapism, Allan Maule has written one of the most unique pieces of theater that Ive ever seen. With Heather Stricklands sharp direction, an expert design team, and a fearless cast of warriors bringing it to life, Im naming 'EverScape' the theatrical event of the season and the best show that Ive seen so far this year." - Dustin Britt, Triangle Arts & Entertainment

Bare Theatre and Sonorous Road Productions present EverScape, an original script by local playwright Allan Maule, running October 6 - 23, 2016.

EverScape debuted at the 2015 New York International Fringe Festival receiving critical acclaim with Theater In The Now declaring, EverScape is a stunning visual explosion that brings the gaming world to life.

EverScape follows four New Yorkers who are stuck in the day-to-day realities and complex challenges of life. Their escape - team up online to play their favorite fantasy video game. When EverScape Inc. offers them the chance to play their way to jobs as game developers, the lines between reality and the virtual world start to blur.

Under the direction of local fight choreographer and director Heather J. Strickland, the regional premiere of this fast-paced, action-packed show will jump between the reality and the fantasy of the worlds we must live in and those in which we choose to live.

There really isnt more than you can ask for in 90 minutes of theater - epic fight scenes, touching love scenes, true friendships, and enough fantasy that we can all escape for a bit, says Strickland. Add all that to the humor and quick wit of Allans script and you have a show that all audiences can find joy in - gamer or not.

NOTE: Online ticket sales end 2 hours before each showtime. It is possible to buy tickets at the door, and box office opens one half hour before each showtime.

NOTE: Immediately following the 10/21 performance, there will be a special talkback with playwright Allan Maule and director Heather J. Strickland.
