Review: TWO ARTISTS IN PRISON at Teatro Paraguas Second Stage
“Most theater companies choose their plays. Grottesco’s reveal themselves.”
Thus begins the director’s notes for Theater Grottesco’s Two Artists in Prison, now playing at Teatro Paraguas’ Second Stage space. The play, co-directed by Grottesco Founder John Flax and Apollo Garcia Orellana, takes place in a dystopian future where artists are locked away at the hands of an authoritarian regime. The prisoners are forced to tell their captors stories on a daily basis; if they are entertaining, they get to remain, if not, the consequences are dire.
Two Artists in Prison runs through June 9th.
