Sobre IBD

Over eight decades have passed since newspapers across the country first published accounts of a terrible shootout in the Carroll County, Virginia, Courthouse which left five people dead. Two men received the electric chair, and four others were sentenced to long prison terms. But doubts over the actual events of that infamous day still linger. In A Tragedy at Hillsville, Ron Larson offers his version of the shootout in an original, full-length drama. The three-act play adheres to the historical record, while entertaining its audience with a vivid and dramatic illustration of the days leading up to that famous shootout.'Larson does a creditable job with portraying the facts in an entertaining way.'--Jim CunninghamThe Carroll News

  • Mississippi Goddamn
    Jonathan Norton
       “Some shows have warnings for strobe lights. Some have them for loud gunshots.  Some for smoke.   MISSISSIPPI GODDAMN, a new play by Jonathan Norton should have one for intensity.   Granted, anyone attending a play about civil rights pioneer Medgar Evers set in 1963 Jackson, Mississippi, should expect some strife. Blood in the battle for racial equality is no surprise, but f...

  • The Lady From Maxim’s
    Georges Feydeau / Laurence Senelick
       “It seems to me that for fertility in droll inventions, the perpetual outpouring of unforeseen misunderstandings, for the inexhaustible gaiety of dialogue, Feydeau’s new play is superior to everything he’s written so far. The most astonishing thing is the sureness with which everything is controlled, explained, justified, in the most extravagant buffoonery. The cross-purpose...

  • Fit For A Queen
    Betty Shamieh
       “Plenty of glamorous backstabbing, diva dissing and sexual double-crossing…has every right to claim the name Dynasty for itself.  But the title character in Betty Shamieh’s bouncy, bumpy comic melodrama is the real thing. A queen, I mean, and not just of the self-dramatizing type. Scratch that. She’s more than a queen. She’s a pharaoh, one Hatshepsut, who reigned over Egypt ...
