WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Anne Bogart and her internationally-acclaimed SITI Company will take audiences on a mystical journey from the depths of the underworld to the vaults of heaven as a simple ploughman, maddened by the loss of his wife, accosts Death and forces him to explain his purpose. What ensues is a memorable journey of discovery, healing and transformation.
The cast of Death and the Ploughman features Will Bond, Ellen Lauren and Stephen Webber. Sets and costumes are designed by James Schuette, with lighting by Brian H. Scott and sound by Darron West. Written in Germany in 1401 by Johannes von Saaz, this is the first production of Death and the Ploughman to be performed in the United States.
