Editor reviews

Creator of Dugout III: Warboy (and the Backboard Blues), Terry Allen, describes his play as, "A love story, an investigation into how memory is invented, a kind of supernatural Jazz History, ghost, blood fiction. Dugout is a made up world, constructed out of true stories and lies I heard and experienced as a boy growing up in the sprawls of Texas". Set in the 1950s, Dugout III is a brilliant and whimsical intersection between storytelling and post-modern theater. The performance by Jo Harvey Allen is particularly enthralling. His light tone combines brilliantly with original music produced by Terry Allen, himself.
