In The Body which is the Town you are invited into the ecosystem of Underhill by Angie, a nine-year-old girl who moved to town when her father was incarcerated in The Cave, a private men’s prison adjoining a women’s prison there. It’s her summer with him, and fissures open in an already broken world when a movie crew shows up to shoot a “reality-inspired” movie in the women’s prison with two queer actors from the city. As romances flare, Angie shows us around her town with the help of local animals all the time writing changes into world history.
The Body was subsequently presented at Prelude 2014 at the Segal Theater Center NYC
