Wooly Mammoth Theatre Company is set to present a free one-night workshop presentation of Mike Daisey‘s The Orient Express (Or, the Value of Failure), July 29 at 7pm. Jean-Michele Gregory directs.

In this latest monologue from Mike Daisey, he impulsively decides to recreate the Orient Express by traveling from London to Istanbul by rail to escape scandal. Daisey draws out the hidden heart of failure, and how stories, myths, lies, and legends are the way we tell ourselves who we are.

This new workshop presentation comes to Woolly after presentations at the Cape Cod Theatre Project, Arts/Emerson in Boston, and the Spoleto Festival in South Carolina.
