The Skriker by Caryl Churchill

Caryl Churchill’s The Skriker opens October 19, 2012 at the Erickson Theatre on Capitol Hill, 1524 Harvard Avenue, Seattle, WA 98122

Renowned playwright Caryl Churchill conjures up a mesmerizing world in which we meet The Skriker, a shapeshifting, wish-granting faerie abroad in modernday London, making dark mischief in her pursuit of two teenaged runaways. Language, appearance and reality are as

slippery as the devil in a phantasmagoric London haunted by gremlins and faeries. Like the best fairy tales, The Skriker taps into the darker passages of the unconscious, invoking Shakespeare’s Midsummer’s Night Dream and Hieronymus Bosch. A superb company of Seattle Artists and Performers create a work that is equal parts stunning theatre, evocative dance and jaw-dropping visual art. Produced & Directed by Janice Findley
