The Moors by Jen Silverman
The wind-swept moors are a bleak and vicious landscape, and their inhabitants are no less wild. Two sisters, an erratic maid, and a rather large mastiff strategize, scrub, and sigh in a labyrinthine Victorian mansion. The entrance of a governess and crash-landing of a moor-hen set all four on a strange trajectory, one step closer to the thrill and danger of being truly seen.
Dacha Theatre, in association with Theatre Off Jackson, is proud to present the Pacific Northwest premiere of Jen Silverman’s dark comedy. This touching, violent, and relentlessly funny love letter to the life and work of the Brontë sisters will delight anyone who has curled up with a British novel, toured a haunted house, or giggled at an unlikely animal friendship.
“The Moors” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.com
