Lilah Kemp: Season 3 (Part 2)

Here are the themes for January-April 2013:


EPISODE 5: DO YOU WANT MORE?

Theme: Addiction

Substance abuse, sex, and shoplifting. Denial and dependance. Stories about overcoming addiction or failing to break the habit. Poems about headaches, cold sweats, and tremors. 
(Wednesday, January 9th @ the Bus Stop Theatre)


EPISODE 6: LABYRINTH

Theme: Escapism

Mental diversions from our daily lives. Dungeons & dragons, television box sets, and video games. Magicians, monsters, and fantastic worlds that exist only in our minds. Escapist societies with seashell radios. Films like 'Pan's Labyrinth' and 'Brazil' should also be considered.
(Wednesday, February 20th @ the Bus Stop Theatre)


EPISODE 7: IT'S OVER

Theme: Break-ups

Poisonous couples. Stories about rejection and heartache. Poems about the one who got away or torturous tales of unrequited love. Painless break-ups or open wounds that will never heal.
(Wednesday, March 6th @ the Bus Stop Theatre)


EPISODE 8: BUMP IN THE NIGHT

Theme: The Paranormal

Ghost stories. True stories that cannot be explained by science. Tricks that our powerful minds can play on us, or miraculous mysteries that will never be solved. Encounters with angels and demons. Noises that keep us awake at night.
(Wednesday, April 3rd @ the Bus Stop Theatre)
