PLEASE NOTE: THIS SHOW HAS BEEN CANCELLED
In AREA we follow a girl as she enters an environment of images that are at times alluring and sometimes shocking. Although she experiences moments of terror she does not turn back, but remains in search of some unattainable end. As her journey continues, we watch as her past begins to fade obscured by the lens of this new world.
Then a crime is committed.

Reviews:
'It points the theater in a new direction... a momentous achievement at a time when everyone believes that originality has keeled over and died.'
- The Buffalo News
'AREA makes the smallest observations mythic through movement of people and objects in sculptured space by use of light, sound and images '
- Theatre Alliance of Buffalo
'Dan Shanahan, Buffalo's most prodigious avant-garde impresario... has a talent for creating striking video and stage pictures... think film noir meets Artaud.'
- Anthony Chase, Artvoice
'The haunting nature of the production is augmented by video and sound design... incorporating alternatively violent and beautiful still photography...'
- The Buffalo News
'...hypnotizing in its intensity...'
- Artvoice
