Cocoon Theatre is delighted to be presenting its final Soiree in the Parlor show of 2019, and final performance of 'TITLE AND DEED' - one night only - in Poughkeepsie -
Monday, December 30 at 7:00 pm. at 9 Vassar Street, Cunneen-Hackett Parlor.
Bring a dish to share for this festive potluck event (following the performance).
Enjoy sending off the year with this unique one-man play
written by Will Eno, performed by Douglas Woolley,
and directed by Marguerite San Millan.
This 75-minute stunning monologue is a haunting and often fiercely funny meditation on life as a state of permanent exile.
Tkts: $10 (pay at the door - cash, check, credit card)
We have explored this material throughout the year, performing in a variety of spaces, and are pleased to end our study at the Parlor with you all!
