The Catskill
Festival of New Theatre

July 27 - August 5, 2001

An unorthodox book steers a young historian into the circle of an antiquarian cult, whose ritual reenactments threaten to shatter her conception of America's beginnings. Cleveland-based Wishhounds marry the writings of Nathaniel Hawthorne and the founding fathers with evocative physicality and haunting songs in a rare theatrical double-take on early American history. The performance features the ensemble of Holly Holsinger, Brett Keyser, Rebecca Spencer, Tracy Broyles, Kristie Lang, Mariah Sage Leeds, dramaturgy by Thomas Bartscherer, and is directed by acclaimed director, Raymond Bobgan.
