WildClaw Theatre Company proudly presents DEATHSCRIBE 2014, the Seventh Annual International Festival of Radio Horror Plays on Monday, December 1st, at 8:00pm. This collection of spine-tingling audio nightmares will be presented at the historic Mayne Stage Theatre, 1328 W. Morse Ave, Chicago. Admission is $30 ($23 for students w/ identification).
Continuing our pursuit of intelligent, imaginative horror storytelling, we solicited and received over 100 original works from both theatre and horror aficionados around the world. After reading each and every entry, the final five were selected through a grueling process. These audio nightmares will be performed live by some of Chicago’s finest actors, accompanied by a live band and a team of sound effects artists. The winner of the “Bloody Axe” will be chosen by a panel of horror and theatre experts. DEATHSCRIBE 2014 will present the following five original horror radio plays:
PLEASE STAND BY, written by Steve Baldwin and directed by Kevin Theis (Irish Theatre of Chicago)
THE WOLF AT THE DOOR, written by Jessica Wright Buha and directed by Anderson Lawfer (Strawdog Theatre)
LOUIS, written by Kevin Alves and directed by Shade Murray (A Red Orchid Theatre)
DOWN BY THE LAKE, written by Ignacio Zulueta and directed by Mary Rose O’Connor (Greenhouse Theatre Center)
FRACTURE ZONE, written by Christopher M. Walsh and directed by Sara Sevigny (The Factory Theatre)
