A New Work Project: LIMINALby Troy Deutsch
Stage Play by Troy Deutsch, Based on an Original Story by Also Sisters
A cosmic event leads to a group of strangers being trapped together in a sealed room.
Created in collaboration with Playwright Brandan Ngo, Co-Directors Alexandra Harbold and Robert Scott Smith, Filmmakers Sonia and Miriam Albert-Sobrino and the LIMINAL Company
Studio 115 • February 18 – 27, 2022*
A co-production of University of Utah Department of Theatre and Flying Bobcat Theatrical Laboratory
Liminal is the stage component of a partnership between the Department of Theatre, Flying Bobcat Theatrical Laboratory, and Also Sisters. The stage play was written by Troy Deutsch, based on an original idea by Also Sisters—internationally-recognized filmmakers, multimedia storytellers, and Assistant Professors in the Film and Media Arts—and developed with the assistance of local playwright Brandan Ngo and Plan B Theatre’s Theatre Artists of Color Writing Workshop. Liminal's co-directors, Robert Scott Smith and Alexandra Harbold, are also the co-founders of Flying Bobcat Theatrical Laboratory. An upcoming film by Also Sisters, currently in pre-production, is another component of this collaboration. Although the stage play and the film are standalone works, they will also function as companion pieces as this project continues to grow and develop. https://theatre.utah.edu/liminal
