The Catamounts joyfully reunite with Mickle Maher, author of their 2014 hit production There Is A Happiness That Morning Is.
Swapping randy college lecturers on William Blake for telemarketing superheroes, Spirits to Enforce once again combines Maher’s keen absurdist sense of humor with hyper-literate and heartfelt storytelling.
Spirits opens in what appears to be a mundane call center where a dozen telemarketers work the phones. We realize soon, however, that this is no ordinary office space, but the inside of "a dripping, creaking, rusted submarine.”
And those temps? They're the Fathom Town Enforcers—superheroes in disguise trying to raise money to mount a production of Shakespeare’s beloved "metaphysical revenge comedy,” The Tempest.
Infusing elements of Shakespeare and comic book lore, this genre-bending play is a glorious celebration of the power of art to triumph over evil. A “beguiling...nimble, surreal comedy...with smarts and a puckish sense of the absurd.” Cleveland Plain Dealer
