THE WORLD PREMIER of
The Death and Resurrection of Carl Verplank
Boulder, Colo (April 17, 2008) – From April 30 through May 10 Theatre13, company in residence at The Dairy Center For The Arts, and Fischer-Webb Productions will present the World Premier of “The Death and Resurrection of Carl Verplank” written by Judson Webb. The play stars Theatre13 founding member Judson Webb and a Host of Disembodied Voices. This limited engagement is directed and Co-Created by Colleen Mylott. “The Death and Resurrection of Carl Verplank” follows the protagonist, Carl Verplank, through four different incarnations and four very different deaths. “In every single moment there are ten thousand billion uncountable potential moments stretching out before us.” Based on our choices and decisions in any given moment we un-spool before ourselves the narrative of our lives never knowing exactly where our chosen path will lead. So it is that the audience is invited to travel pieces of these potential paths with Carl the Astronaut, Carl the Homeless Prophet, Carl the Deep-sea Diver and Carl the Mob Enforcer.
Opening night is Wednesday April 30. Performances are 7 p.m. on Wednesdays, Thursdays and 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays May 1,2,7,8,9,10 with Midnight performances on Fridays May 2 & 9; Saturday May 10.
