St. Louis Actors' Studio Continues 'Love and Honor' Season with Neil Labute's THE SHAPE OF THINGS

St. Louis Actors' Studio continues its Love and Honor season with an examination of the art of seduction.

Neil LaBute's The Shape of Things opens at The Gaslight Theater on February 19

What: St. Louis Actors' Studio, continuing with its third season, examines the art of seduction with Neil LaBute's The Shape of Things. When nerdy college student Adam meets cool graduate art student Evelyn, he is instantly infatuated. As the relationship continues on, however, Evelyn's influence upon Adam changes him drastically. LaBute's disquieting story of seduction, manipulation, and loss of identity analyzes the sacrifices one will make for love.

Directed by Alec Wild, The Shape of Things will feature the following cast: Ann Ashby, Shanara Gabrielle*, Billy Kelly and Christian Vieira. (*Member of Actors' Equity Association)
