SNOW WHITE TRASH At Empire Stage - Infinite Abyss Premieres Original Play

Infinite Abyss to premiere original play

Snow White Trash at Empire Stage in January

Infinite Abyss Productions, in association with Empire Stage, to announced it is premiering its first original play, Snow White Trash, in January 2012. Snow White Trash was written by Infinite Abyss principals Erynn Dalton (Producer) and Jeffrey D. Holmes (Artistic Director). According to Dalton, Snow White Trash is “A campy take on the classic Snow White fairytale, like the Fractured Fairy Tales shown after each Rocky and Bullwinkle episode in the 1960s, but naughtier. Jeff and I have always been big fans of camp, Charles Busch style, and thought it was time to get Snow out there!”

Snow White Trash isn’t Dalton’s and Holmes’ first originally-produced, self-written piece. The now defunct Sol Theatre produced their racy comedy Alice Does Wonderland in 2007. Brandon K. Thorp was the critic for the New Times Broward Palm Beach in 2007 and wrote the following about the production “The Sol Theatre is a dirty place filled with dirty people. In Alice Does Wonderland, you will see Alice going down on the Cheshire Cat. You will see the Red Queen deep-throat a light saber, which is dangerous even if it is hygienic. And you will laugh.”

Immediately following the successful run of Alice Does Wonderland, Holmes and Dalton embarked on writing Snow White Trash. Infinite Abyss has assembled a cast of Abyss favorites for this production, including Danielle Tabino (Stop Kiss) as Snow White, Kitt Marsh (Mitzi’s Abortion) as the Evil Queen, Jim Gibbons (The Pillowman) as Dr. E Dwarf and Dominick Daniel (The Pillowman) as Prince. Also, Sol Theatre regular Angel Perez will be making his Infinite Abyss debut as Hi Dwarf, along with Zachary Schwartz as the Magic Mirror, who was last seen at Empire Stage in Michael Leeds’ production of The First Step - Diary of a Sex Addict. Once again, Jeff Holmes, Infinite Abyss’ Artistic Director, will be directing this production, with Erynn Dalton serving as Producer.

Infinite Abyss Productions burst onto the South Florida theatre scene with 2010’s production of Stop Kiss by Diana Son, which was a smash hit with critics and audiences. The company has since produced hits such as Hedwig and the Angry Inch (May 2011) and The Pillowman (July 2011), for which Artistic Director Jeffrey D. Holmes won a Silver Palm Award for Outstanding Direction.

Snow White Trash runs now through January 28th (Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 PM) at Empire Stage- 1140 N. Flagler Drive, Fort Lauderdale. Tickets are $25 and can be purchased online at www.infinite-abyss.com or at the door (cash only).
