I wanted to share with you all a press release for an upcoming play called The Nether. The play is written by Jennifer Haley and wonderfully enough it won her the 2012 Susan Smith Blackburn prize, which is an award presented to an outstanding women playwright. Jennifer Haley is also known for her graphic novel play FROGGY
This play is set in the realm of the internet in which you login and pick your new identity and just do as you will (pretty much what we all do on the internet currently). However everything changes when a detective stumbles upon the dark side of this wonderful E-Realm.
This play is currently playing at the:
Kirk Douglas Theatre
Located in: Downtown Culver City
9820 Washington Blvd.
Culver City, CA 90232
United States
