Funny, Strange, Provocative: Seven Plays From Clubbed Thumb

Synopsis:
This anthology includes seven plays produced by Clubbed Thumb, the Obie award-winning downtown New York City theater company that burst onto the new play scene in 1996. edgy and thought-provoking, each play is funny, strange, and provocative in surprising, widely varying ways -- including an apartment that both adores and despises its inhabitants in Crumble (Lay Me Down, Justin Timberlake), a metropolitan housewife who senses that something is watching her in 16 Spells to Charm the Beast, and a group of traveling freak show performers who reveal a deep humanity underneath their crowd-drawing deformities in Freakshow,among other uniquely inventive stories. For over a decade, Clubbed Thumb has had its finger firmly planted on the Pulse of new work, and these plays prove it. To purchase this book of 7 plays, click "add to Shopping Cart" above.

Have You Seen Steve Steven?

Synopsis:
Lost in a labyrinth of Midwestern McMansions, teenager Kathleen Clarkson senses that something is very wrong with her world but nothing prepares her for the arrival of Hank Mountain. This friendly neighbor and his elusive partner-in-crime, Vera, stop over to bring brownie bars and chat about the property taxes. What her parents don't realize is that they've also come as harbingers of annihilation. When an all-knowing exchange student pops in from afar to join these two neighbors from 'just down the way,' a fairy tale of make-believe dissolves into a nightmare that reveals the instability at the core of everything Kathleen knows
