On Saturday, Oct. 22, Caisley presents a "Know-The-Show" pre-performance discussion of the play's themes, his inspirations for writing the piece and some personal history on the play's subsequent productions and how they have been important to him as a playwright and artist. The pre-show discussion will begin promptly at 7 p.m., followed by the performance at 8 p.m.On Sunday, Oct. 23, 6th Street Playhouse Artistic Director, Craig Miller, will facilitate a more in-depth post-show, symposium style talk back with Caisley and the entire cast and crew of "Kite's Book" for audience members who would like to stay after final curtain of the 2 p.m. Oct. 23 matinee performance.
By Robert Caisley
Set in London in the 1750s, "Kite's Book: Tales of an 18th Century Hitman" is a sword-slinging, pistol-dueling, maiden-saving, jolly good time - with a fervent and poignant examination of the many variations on, and the disparities within, the human ideal that "Justice must be served!"
