Stone Soup
Theatre Arts presents Stone and The Maguffin,
April 5–28 in NYC

Stone Soup Theatre Arts presents the first known New York production of Stone by Edward Bond and The Maguffin by Adam Hunault for a limited engagement run from April 5 through April 28 at the Actor's Theatre Workshop in New York City.

Stone, originally commissioned by England's Gay Sweatshop Theatre in the 1970s, is a chilling fairy tale that follows a young man who is asked to deliver a stone to a mason's house. Over the course of the play the stone grows into a boulder. In Stone Soup Theatre's reimagining of the play, half-human, half-puppet characters are used to explore the notion of who is puppet and who is puppeteer.

The Maguffin, also with half-human, half-puppet characters, explores contemporary politics including issues like marriage equality.

The plays run at the Actor's Theatre Workshop at 145 West 28th St., 3rd floor, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 8 p.m., April 5-28.
