Field Notes from The Service Road
A ferocious storm hits Prospect Park. The once peaceful service road turns
strange as a nature guide attempts to find a lost child. On her quest she
meets the denizens of one of the few natural places left in a large city.
The nature guide is a modern day Hercules trying to do penance for a very bad thing
she had done when she was out of her mind. Obie award winning playwright
(Map of Virtue) Erin Courtney examines what it means to be of service and
the true nature of forgiveness. Director Meghan Finn (see below)
seamlessly blends Erin's sparse poetic language with the highly visual multi-media
spectacle that you've come to expect from Adhesive Theater Project.

Meet Our Creative Staff

“The Service Road has been envisioned by a playwright, a team of designers,
and also by the students working on it – there are many creative minds
collaborating. Add live foley, puppetry, integrated video and a construction
lift and there are a lot of pieces that need to come together to create a cohesive
whole. That is my role and that's what excites me the most about it.
New ideas are presented to me everyday – and I have to figure out how to
incorporate them, how to fine-tune them, or when they are not working for whatever
reason – how to find better ones. As a director this is always the gig,
but for this project it is a particularly harrowing endeavor, which makes it both
fun and terrifying.”

Adhesive Theater Project is celebrating its second decade of binding
the arts through the bonds of collaboration.
We are dedicated to working with artists in a broad
range of fields – from fashion designers to scientists, illustrators to
engineers – to create experimental, multidisciplinary work. By
challenging these artists to work in the theater we create new perspectives
for live performance. By integrating live music,
visual arts, and technological innovations with metaphor and narrative
storytelling we create epic experiences that excite the audience's imagination.

Book by Joshua Conkel
Music & Lyrics by Matt Marks
Directed by Nick Leavans
Britt is a small town girl who unwittingly becomes a muse to eccentric fashion
designer, Edsel Von Macramé, and becomes tormented by psychic visions of
grisly occult murders within the industry. A pop horror fashion show,
The House of Von Macramé is a celebration of stylish European horror
films from the 60's and 70's, an extravaganza of design and spectacle, and an
exploration of iconoclasts.
Featuring: Crystal Arnette, Tara Bruno*,

Felicia Hudson*, David Mitsch*, Frank Paiva, Paul Pecorino*, Vanessa Pereda,
