365 DAYS/365 PLAYS

The most audacious project yet from Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Suzan-Lori Parks (Topdog/Underdog; Fucking A), 365 Days/365 Plays is a simultaneous, national performance collaboration, encompassing over 700 groups and individual artists from New York to Los Angeles, Seattle to Atlanta.

Background:

In November 2002, Parks began writing a play a day for 365 consecutive days. Last year, she and producer Bonnie Metzger invited artists to present a play a day, in exactly the order Parks wrote them. It began November 13, 2006 and will continue through November 12, 2007. Artists sign up to present a week of performances, at which time they receive the plays for that week. The rule: The performances must be presented free of charge to the public.

Infernal Bridegroom will participate January 15 - 21, 2007. IBP associate artistic director Troy Schulze is directing the entire week of performances. IBP is the first Houston group to participate. Other local groups, including HSPVA, Mildred's Umbrella, Bobbindoctrin Puppet Theater, Nova Arts Project, DiverseWorks and Galveston's Strand Theater have signed on for other weeks throughout the year.

Whole Foods Market is a presenting partner in IBP's week of shows and will be providing free food and drinks from its "365" product line for our audiences. Beer and wine will be for sale at the Axiom bar.

Come one night; come every night! Each performance is different, and who knows what will happen!

ADMISSION IS FREE
