PLAY DEAD (2010) Teller, of Penn & Teller fame, along with cohort Todd Robbins created this spirit-shaking show that explores themes of death, darkness and deception. Audiences test their nerves and face their fears as they are surrounded by ethereal sights, sounds and even touches of the returning dead – all achieved by wry, suspenseful storytelling and uncanny stage illusions. I met with delightful producer Cheryl Wiesenfeld very early on. I think what impressed her most was my extensive knowledge of horror movies (love them!) and my enthusiasm about the very creepy subject matter. The light bulb image is very effective and evokes the essence of this frightfully fun evening of pure theatre.
