AFTER THE FIRES

Transatlantic Love Affair’s

After the Fires promo.jpg

February 7-22, 2020

Civilization as we know it has been swallowed up in a world re-wilded. As the vestiges of the last known community battle a mysterious sickness, they comfort each other with songs and stories that tell of Healers who hold the key to survival. And when journeyers venture forth to find the Healers, what they discover in the lush and mythological Green will change everything... Inspired by the archetypal hero's journey, After the Fires offers a story of wonder and resilience in times of darkness.

Conceived and Directed by Isabel Nelson

Created by the Ensemble: Gracie Anderson, Vinecia Coleman, Domino D'Lorion, Derek Lee Miller, Boo Segersin, and Allison Witham

Assistant Director: Eric Marinus
Stage Manager: Andre Johnson
Instrumental Composition: Emily Dantuma
Vocal Composition: Walken Schweigert

*The performance on Saturday, February 15 will include an ASL interpreter.

“Transatlantic Love Affair has honed this physical theater technique to a fine art. The performers direct your attention so confidently, and in the context of such strongly imagined stories, that you might find yourself forgetting there’s no set there. ”
— Jay Gabler, City Pages
