KATHARINE SHERMAN
christopher marlowes chloroform dreams

Synopsis:
Renaissance dramatist Christopher Marlowe is reimagined as a hard-hitting, hard-drinking private eye in a hazy, dreamlike noir-world laced with fairy tales. Marlowe stands accused of heresy by a villainous druglord who knocks him out with chloroform and leaves him asleep in a speakeasy basement. Moments reinterpreting myths and fairy tales mingle with tropes and archetypes of the genre, the legend around Marlowes own turbulent biography and the mythology of the play itself: a tangle of religion, love, addiction, and heresy  however its defined.

KATHARINE SHERMAN
like the night

Synopsis:
In Greek mythology, Selene was the goddess of the moon who fell in love with a mortal man. like the night re-envisions Selene as a former prom queen, and the object of her affections as a burnout who once worshipped her from afar. After reconnecting, the two begin a relationship straight out of their dreams-but as they see each other up close, with their all-too-human flaws and insecurities exposed, reality begins to intrude. Equal parts Brothers Grimm and Velvet Underground, like the night explores the consequences of our culture's obsession with image, putting a thoroughly contemporary spin on a classic love story.
