CHICAGO – When in the presence of a powerful acting force like Michael Shannon, the depth of performance is emotional and passionately essential. He co-leads with Travis A. Knight in Red Orchid Theatre’s World Premiere of Levi Holloway’s “Turret,” just extended to June 22nd at the Chopin Theatre. For tickets and info, click TURRET.!—break—>
The story, written and directed by Levi Holloway, is set in a dystopian future, as two men are holed in an underground bunker, after an unnamed event has poisoned the air outside the protective room. Green (Michael Shannon) is a military officer, and Rabbit (Travis A. Knight) is an enlisted grunt who share the bunker space. The place is outfitted with electricity generation, data processing and supplies, which interests an outsider named Birdy (Lawrence Grimm). Can humanity survive in such conditions?
