Whither Goest Thou America: A Festival of New Play Reading - The Light Collectors by Blake Hackler


Undermain Theatre

Undermain Theatre presents Whither Goest Thou America: A Festival of New Play Readings. Four weeks of staged readings of new American plays examining the current American Landscape. Each week of the series will focus on a different playwright and play with readings of the play by an ensemble cast and the playwright in attendance for discussion of the work every Saturday night. Audiences will have the opportunity to return each week of the series to experience a new work and author examining the American experience and asking the question, “How did we get here and where are we going?” 

THE LIGHT COLLECTORS by Blake Hackler 4/19/18 – 4/22/18

Esther's quiet Brighton Beach existence is upended when a mysterious woman arrives at her door. It seems Esther's sister, Laila, has been kidnapped by a dybbuk, who's taking people's stories. Soon Esther is on her way to Japan to do battle with the dybbuk and her past. And she's going to bring Laila home, no matter the cost. A metaphysical mystery by Blake Hackler.
