The Isle of Dogs
by Larry Larson, Edward Lee, Rebecca Wackler
Synopsis
Originally commissioned by Actors Theatre of Louisville, this wild play about the woes of a regional theater is set in England in the 1580s.
The troupe is determined to raise money so they can take their play to London.
At the backer’s audition, the queen’s representative patiently explains that their play lacks relevancy.
While the plague rages, how can her majesty fund them when there are no “health disadvantaged characters” in the play?
They desperately rewrite it to satisfy the money people, driving the poor playwright to hang himself.
