The Elysian Theater

The Elysian

The Blond (Emily Allan) and The Dark Haired One (Leah Hennessey) attempt to transcend the banality of identity and the terror of consciousness through cosplay, anglophilia, critical theory and song. Incorporating fan-fictional pairings such as Lennon/McCartney and Sherlock/Watson, interspersed with meta commentary by infamous second-wave feminists (Camile Paglia, Andrea Dworkin) and mashed up 80s punk songs, they guide the audience through an infernal fantasia of perverted intertextuality. Described as “prankish genius (The Paris Review,) and “the ultimate fanfiction play,” (Syfy), Slash is a “pop feminist tour de force” (Office) about the erotics of collaboration and friendshipPresented by John EarlyA play by Emily Allan &amp; Leah HennesseyA﻿ll Shows:<ul><li>T﻿uesday 5/2</li><li>S﻿aturday 5/6</li></ul>Doors at 9 PM, Show at 9:30 PMWe start shows no later than 10 MINUTES after the scheduled show time.
