The White Airplane and Horror Academy: Two Plays by Darren Callahan marks the second publication from Polarity Ensemble Theatre Books. Advance praise for The White Airplane includes: “The White Airplane is one of the most casually bizarre, memorably transcendent, shockingly ergonomic and viscerally tasty pieces of theatre. Darren Callahan is a fatal fever that makes you feel all first-kiss-tingly.” —Andrew H. Beal, playwright, The Cardboard Box Collaborative and “Callahan is a major talent. He always challenges an audience with scripts and ideas that push the envelope. An uncompromising artist in the truest sense.” —Raymond Benson, author, James Bond--The Union Trilogy.

Polarity Ensemble Theatre Books is pleased to announce its first release: Antigone and Macbeth: Adaptations for a War-Torn Time. Both plays in the collection respond strongly to the current political situation. Playwright Richard Engling adapted and directed Absolute Macbeth in a critically-acclaimed ritual production designed to “purge the tyrant” from our society. Engling and directors Ann Keen and Zack Brenner have collaborated for two years on the script of Antigone. Though they see the political landscape from different points of view, they all wanted to bring out the inevitability of war when societies demonize one another and reserve righteousness for themselves. Antigone and Macbeth: Adaptations for a War-Torn Time Paperback: 196 pages Publisher: Polarity Ensemble Theatre (February 2006) Language: English ISBN: 0977661008 Product Dimensions: 8.0 x 5.0 x 0.5 inches Shipping Weight: 7.7 ounces. U.S. $12.00 (Free shipping) Email us for quantity discounts. Free Download |
