Decapitations by Megan Tabaque

Salvage Vanguard Theater announces the Works Progress Austin development of Megan Tabaque's Decapitations.

In the Santos home, an alligator stalks, a mother talks to her car, a prodigal daughter binges on cereal, a devoted son raises lizards, and a neighbor's dog vanishes. Funny, surreal and strange, Decapitations is a ghost story exploring multi-racial Filipino identity in the swamps of central Florida.

Written by Megan Tabaque
Directed by Alexandra Bassiakou Shaw
Music by Henna Chou
Artwork by Rachel Long

Featuring performers Jonah Fujikawa, Sarah Chong Harmer, Nathan Daniel Ford, Jenny Connell Davis, Elizabeth Doss

Launched in 2006, Works Progress Austin provides playwrights with the resources they need to bring their work to life. Works Progress Austin has featured new works by Caridad Svich, Dan Dietz, and Sibyl Kempson.
