Apollinaire Theatre Company Presents Slasher

Apollinaire Theatre Company presents Slasher by Allison Moore. The hilarious hit of 2009's Humana Festival of New American Plays at the Actors Theater of Louisville.

A Horrifying Comedy.

When she's cast as the "last girl" in a low-budget slasher flick, Sheena thinks it's the big break she's been waiting for. But news of the movie unleashes her malingering mother's thwarted feminist rage, and Mom is prepared to do anything to stop filming...even if it kills her.
Performances of the Slasher by Allison Moore are October 14-November 5,
Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00, and Thurs. Oct. 27 at 8,00, Sat. Oct. 29 at 5:00, Sun. Oct. 30 at 7:00, and Mon. Oct. 31 at 8:00

Performances are at the Chelsea Theatre Works, 189 Winnisimmet St., Chelsea.
Tickets are $25 in advance, $30 at the door.
Seniors pay $20 in advance (advance purchase only).
Student rush tickets are $15 and are available beginning one hour before each performance.
Tickets can be purchased by calling (617) 887-2336 or on-line at www.apollinairetheatre.com.
Information and directions at www.apollinairetheatre.com.
Performance runs 90 minutes. Performances will be followed by a Reception with the actors in the Gallery.
