STAGE TUBE: Trailer for Dirty Blonde's THE AMERICAN PLAY by Ashely Jacobson

THE AMERICAN PLAY by Ashley Jacobson (developed by Ashley Jacobson and Alexandra Siladi) is the sinister tale of a burgeoning friendship in an increasingly sociopathic society hell-bent on making monsters of its men and objects of its women. The world premiere of this original theatrical work, inspired by Bret Easton Ellis' novel American Psycho, coincides with the 20th anniversary of the book's publication, 6/4 - 6/23, 2012. Check out the trailer video.

The Dirty Blondes is a new Brooklyn based theater company comprised of founders Alexandra Siladi (director), Elizabeth Sarkady (manager), and Ashley Jacobson (playwright). Their focus is to create productions that subvert national stereotypes with an edge of intellect and maturity – to present works using techniques that are identifiable yet unexpected.

Creative team for the production includes lighting designer John Wilder, choreographer Taryn Vander Hoop (co-founder of Summation Dance), and sound designer Max Letaconnoux.

The cast includes Jimmy Dailey, Shane Jensen, Rachel Napoleon and Chorus: Tyler McClain, Cecilia Lynn-Jacobs, Susan Bartolme, Brooke Bergen.
