PIT OF GOBLINS Returns To The Ruby Theater

After an amazingly successful Hollywood Fringe Festival run, Mitchell Bisschop is excited to bring his new existential-comedic-nightmarish vision back to Hollywood Row. Blending video, live action, and a few shocking moments along the way, Pit of Goblins promises to frighten, delight, and fill its audience with that joyful uneasy feeling just in time for Halloween. In addition to the performance, Pit of Goblins offers an amazing array of post show events. From Serial Killer trivia and costume contests to your very own beef jerky tutorial, Bisschop will take you on a horror filled fantasy journey as you lose sight of all of the things you hold most dear.

Pit of Goblins tells the story of Wayne, an energetic and optimistic family man who is also a mentally tortured serial killer. Wayne, resembling the secret love child of Ed Kemper and BTK, must kill and feed his victims to a demanding pit of Goblins in the woods in order to avoid capture by a local sheriff. Animated, surreal videos and images eerily float behind Wayne giving a small window into the distressed mind of a man struggling to survive. As more and more townsfolk disappear, the inept sheriff begins to feel the community's heat as he runs out of answers. With the demands of the Goblins growing, Wayne struggles to understand his situation and just where exactly he went wrong.

Playwright and performer Mitchell Bisschop is a theatre artist living in Los Angeles. He is a two-time nominee of the Best Solo Performance award at the Hollywood Fringe Festival and has won the Fringe Encore Producers' Award the past two years. Mitchell's first solo show, the absurdist comedy I Can Hear You Now, was called "...a psychedelic, fun, wild ride!". Mitchell studied theatre at Ithaca and has performed stand-up, improv, sketch and theatre in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles for years.

Directly following the Each Performance of Pit of Goblins there will be special post show events. These events are factored into the runtime.
