Aux Dog Theatre Nob Hill introduces an outstanding new playwright to New Mexico audiences. Anna Ziegler. Her play A DELICATE SHIP is making waves in the regionals right now, playing in Los Angeles, and Arizona in January 2018.
"In this memory play about the fragile dynamics of young relationships, and the mysterious workings of time...the present and the past are in constant tension, or maybe in thoughtful, sorrowful conversation...Ms. Ziegler's quietly lyrical language has a luminous beauty, and her talent for creating characters whose complicated depths are just visible on their surfaces is still more remarkable." -The New York Times.
A Delicate Ship features another outstanding Aux Dog cast: Merritt Glover (The Father; Boeing Boeing), Colin A Borden (Much Ado About Nothing) and Quinn Mander (The Tempest, Henry IV and V) The production is directed by Sheridan Johnson. Stage manager is Bradd Howard.
