WHISTLER WEDNESDAYS @ THE FACTORY THEATRE

Posted on June 7, 2011 by J. PAT

Like a bully reading your diary out loud in homeroom, Whistler Wednesdays over the The Factory Theatre yoinks manuscripts right off the cluttered desks and plodding word processors of local playwrights and places them in the deep vocal-range of the players from acclaimed nano-troupe Whistler in the Dark. This week, Newburyport’s Ron Pullins offers us a look-see into a right and proper damnation with his freaky-deaky take on Hell, Woman.Bicycle. Not quite sure what direction he’s going with this one, but so far, Hell’s sounding a whole lot like Somerville. [WED.6.15.11. THE FACTORY THEATRE. 791 Tremont St., Boston. 617.817.6600 7:30pm/free, reserve tickets online. thefactorytheatre.org]
