Free theatre & free wine: Huzzah!
Tragic Swashbuckler (working title) staged reading this weekend

Though we're still hunting for a title, in just a few days we'll be presenting the first draft of the third installment of our CineTheatre Tetralogy (4 years, 4 productions, 4 classic film styles adapted for the stage): a 1930's swashbuckler as Sophocles might have written it, exploring how susceptible morality can be to the conflicting pulls of loyalty to self, lover, family, fraternity, nation, and god. This comic mash-up of Greek Tragedy and Errol Flynn-era pirate films will feature rapier duels and rapier wit as it satirizes humanity's dependence on moral codes, however flimsy they might be.

Semi-staged reading:
January 27 @6pm
FREE + FREE WINE!!!
@ Battery Dance Company
380 Broadway, 5th Floor

**Note: The map of the party location that appears on the flier was slightly off. The Underwater Lounge is located between Main Street and Dock Street and the map is now correct at www.partylikepirates.com. We'd been sending out a false map just t' throw the smarmy landlubbers off the scent, see, 'nd keep our treasure fer ourselves, and our parrots, arrr.**
