Shadow House PITS presents
The Serpent's Tale / THEATRE IN A CAR 4

6 Feb 2014 to 8 Feb 2014

Audiences are invited to enter into the dark world of the car . . . a car which belongs to a particular figure and being driven to an unknown destination of the mind. So many of lifes occurrences happen in a car. Theatre-In-A-Car begins with some of these life changing events.

Theatre-In-A-Car is not an obvious theatrical venture. Passengers are not taken on some sight-seeing venture with a funny guide who makes jokes and acquaints sight-seers with the National Capital. The driver has more in common with a ghost than a familiar person. But the driver has to tell a tale to relieve his/her personal psyche and to enrich or warn the passengers. The first step is to get into the car with mystery behind the wheel and then to let the mind wander as the voices and sights enter your own dreams. In less than twelve minutes, your world will not be the same again. The engine starts and the driver opens up with the tale that cannot be erased by the whims of time or by simply vacating the vehicle . . .

The Serpent's Tale
by Leonard Andreyev and adapted for the stage by Walter Wykes
directed and designed by Joe Woodward
featuring Lucy Matthews as the Driver / Serpent
