In Daredevil, by Gary Winter, a girl named Elizabeth may or may not be preparing to join a mysterious resistance group; a “mountain” tells the story of the sailor, the priest and the peanut vendor; in a hotel room in Oklahoma, a man becomes an armchair storm-watcher; a clumsy girl sings a song about being clumsy; a group of aspiring actors perform stripped down adaptations of Shakespeare. Throughout Daredevil‘s surreal fun-house structure a stage manager acts as our guide, and live music adds a layer of energy and framing.

Daredevil, directed by Meghan Finn, premiered at The Brick in the Williamsburg area of Brooklyn, as part of their new artist residency program, August 6-16, 2014.
