Walking Shadow Announces 10th Anniversary Season
By: Courtnie Mele Jul. 19, 2014
It's been ten years since Walking Shadow began at the Minnesota Fringe Festival. Over the past 32 productions we've crossed swords, lost bicycles, solved puzzles, been killed by zombies, danced like robots, traveled through time, saved Tokyo, and had many lively debates. Thanks for making this decade of fun, intelligent, provocative theatre possible!
Walking Shadow's 10th Anniversary Season:
Our 2014-2015 season includes three regional premieres featuring danger, magic, survival, reconciliation and ridiculous pistol duels.
Gabrielby Moira Buffini, directed by Amy Rummenie Minneapolis Theatre Garage
September 26 - October 11, 2014 A tiny, rocky island in the middle of the English Channel. A bitter winter night, two years into the German occupation. A young girl calls on ancient fairy magic, and a beautiful, naked young man washes up on the mine-filled Guernsey beach. Is he an English pilot? Or a Nazi officer? For the women who found him, Gabriel could either be their savior, or the biggest danger they've met.
by Samuel D. Hunter, directed by Amy Rummenie Mixed Blood Theatre
November 26 - December 20, 2014 On the outskirts of Mormon Country, Idaho, a six hundred pound recluse hides away in his apartment, eating himself to death. Hoping to find an honest human connection, he reaches out to his long-estranged daughter, only to discover a viciously sharp-tongued teen. Big-hearted and fiercely funny, The Whale tells the story of a man's last chance at redemption, and of finding beauty in the most unexpected places. The Whale will be presented as part of Walking Shadow and Mixed Blood's 2014-2015 seasons. The Coward
by Nick Jones, directed by Amy Rummenie Red Eye Theater
February 6 - 28, 2015 Lucidus is a bloody coward. After being compelled by his overbearing father to defend the family name, he challenges an unsuspecting gentleman to a duel. This is Lucidus' first mistake. Terrified and squeamish, he hires a thug to fight in his place. This is Lucidus' second mistake. He'll make more. A lot more. The Coward is a manly comedy about manly honor... played by a company of women.
