Dialogue with Three Chords to Present STRANGE CHALICES OF VISION at Industry City

Dialogue with Three Chords will present "Strange Chalices of Vision," the next installment in their serialized play "A Brooklyn Arcanum" at Brooklyn's Industry City. Written by Stephen Gracia and directed by Michael LoPorto, the performance includes a night of Halloween plays about hoaxes, ghosts, the alchemical properties of alcohol, and deals with the devil.

The show includes a live musical performance by GreenLady, a Psych Folk trio, and starts at 8pm on Thursday, October 26th at the Tom Kane Theatre in Brooklyn's Industry City at 51 35th St, Brooklyn, NY 11232. First floor of Building 5, next to St. Mark's Comics.

Tickets are $5 and can be purchased at the box office or online: https://www.bkone.org/tix No one will be turned away who is unable to pay.

This season, the themes for the plays are determined by a three-card tarot spread with two major arcana cards becoming the controlling idea of each play and the minor card suggesting the relationship between the two plays.

In "The Wheel of Fortune or This Sublime Chemical Speculation," the last surviving sister from a world-famous spiritualist act sits alone drinking vodka and arguing about the afterlife with her dead sisters.

"The Devil or Into Strange Vagaries We Fall" is a modern re-telling of a 16th century Dutch miracle play in which a young woman enters into a deal with the Devil, not for riches, beauty, or health, but rather for knowledge of music, arithmetic, geometry, astronomy, rhetoric, grammar, logic, and poetry.

These October plays form a part of the ongoing narrative of "A Brooklyn Arcanum," a serialized format D3C created that allows for the plays to be seen individually, while repeated audience members will notice interconnected characters and themes.

A Brooklyn Arcanum" is presented by BrooklynONE Productions (bkONE), who founded the Tom Kane Theatre at Industry City. BkONE Co-founder Anthony Marino says he's thrilled to present D3C's ongoing play series, calling D3C "our sister company and family."
