I'm acting in a play at Dream Theatre.
We open tomorrow with The Devilish Children and the Civilizing Process. It's an adaptation of a classic 19th century German book for children, "Der Struwwelpeter", which is a collection of short rhymed stories.
This play adds a through-line, a hero's journey, for little Karl, aged 3.
Although the original stories are for children, our production runs to the graphic, and you should only bring children who won't be terrified.
These cautionary tales
were originally designed,
to scare bad children into
a civilized state of mind.
