The Press, Shelter, and The Pact: Three Plays by David Lloyd

Friday, July 25, 8:00 PM PT
In Person at Beyond Baroque & Live on Youtube

The evening opens with staged readings from The Press and The Pact, written by David Lloyd and directed by filmmaker Liza Johnson, known for her cinematic explorations of power and identity. Alexandra Poulain writes in the foreword, "the three plays, is no less than the dark secret of Western capitalist modernity: that it is grounded in violence, and always harbors the possibility of collapsing into fascism."
