NewYorkRep has announced that it will present the off-Broadway premiere of Markus Potter's Stalking the Bogeyman, beginning September 12 at New World Stages. Opening night is set for September 29. Potter will also direct.

Stalking the Bogeyman is based on the true story of David Holthouse, as first told in the Denver Westword newspaper. In 2003, Holthouse, an award-winning journalist, was planning the ultimate revenge on the man responsible for his violent rape as a child. The story is ultimately one of transformation, healing, and forgiveness.

The play was created from news reports, conversations with Holthouse, and lectures he has given around the country.

The production features scenic design by David Goldstein, lighting design by Cory
Pattak, and sound design and original composition by Erik T. Lawson.
