| Third Rail Projects Immersive Hit Extends into 2018! THEN SHE FELL Tickets Now Available Through April 29th, 2018 "This is extreme theater: fresh, fun, totally absorbing, a full contact sport with no rules and no boundaries.” – Time Magazine Top 10 of 2012. One of "this year's most memorable productions." "I felt like a bewildered but enchanted child, made privy to the arcana of another, darker world… Creepy and thrilling." -- Ben Brantley, The New York Times "Wildly imaginative… wonderfully written, directed and choreographed." -- The New Yorker "One of the most hauntingly lovely pieces of theater that I've ever experienced… The experience is deeply personal, re-creating the wonders and terrors of childhood with hallucinatory vividness." -- Vogue Third Rail Projects' award-winning production of THEN SHE FELL, which celebrated its 5-year anniversary earlier this October after more than 3,000 performances, announces an extension into 2018. A new block of tickets is now on sale through April 29, 2018. This immersive theater event is inspired by the life and writings of Lewis Carroll (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland). THEN SHE FELL takes place at The Kingsland Ward at St. Johns, a century-old institutional building in Williamsburg, Brooklyn where the action plays out on 3 floors. THEN SHE FELL is a fully immersive, multi-sensory experience in which only 15 audience members at a time explore a dreamlike world where every alcove, corner, and corridor has been transformed into lushly designed performance space. Inspired by the life and writings of Lewis Carroll, it offers an ‘Alice-like’ experience for audience members as they explore the rooms, often by themselves, in order to discover hidden scenes; encounter performers one-on-one; unearth clues that illuminate a shrouded history; use skeleton keys to gain access to guarded secrets; and imbibe custom-designed elixirs. Written, directed, designed and choreographed by Zach Morris, Tom Pearson and Jennine Willett in collaboration with The Company, THEN SHE FELL evokes the inner, psychological landscapes of Lewis Carroll, Alice Liddell, and iconic characters from Carroll’s texts. Every aspect of each audience member’s experience has been meticulously designed, from lush environments to the smells, tastes, and objects, that they discover as they explore and unravel a narrative that balances dream, reality, fact, and fiction. This genre-defining production of THEN SHE FELL is directed, designed, written and choreographed by Zach Morris, Tom Pearson, and Jennine Willett in collaboration with original cast members: Elizabeth Carena, Alberto Denis, Stacie C. Tobar, Rebekah Morin, Marissa Nielsen-Pincus, Tara O’Con, and Zoë Schieber. It is currently performed by the company: Matthew Albert, Eric Berey, Erika Boudreau-Barbee, Andrew Broaddus, Kyle Castillo, Kristen Carcone, Larry Daniels, Elisa Davis, Caitlin Dutton-Reaver, Julia Galanski, Gierre J. Godley, Joseph Harris, Julia Jurgilewicz, Julia Kelly, Mary Madsen, Lauren Muraski, Jenna Purcell, Alex M. Schell, Taylor Semin, Mackenzie Sherburne, Julie Seal, Jeff Sykes, and Charly Wenzel. Supported by Elizabeth Carena, Alberto Denis, Joshua Dutton-Reaver, Kim Fischer, Rebekah Morin, Taylor Myers, Edward Rice, Kim Savarino, Bre Short, Samuel Swanton, and Madeline Wilcox. The production features production design by Zach Morris, Tom Pearson, and Jennine Willett, original music & sound design by Sean Hagerty, costumes by Karen Young, lighting design by Kryssy Wright, production management by Brittany Crowell, assistant direction by Marissa Nielsen-Pincus, rehearsal direction by Julia Kelly, assistant rehearsal direction by Mary Madsen, original technical direction by Carlton C.
