#FringeFemmes Check-Ins: The Body

by Thea Pueschel

Quick peeks at #HFF26’s “Women on the Fringe” by Fringe Femmes who are behind the scenes this year. Click Here for all Check-Ins

WHO: Janna King and Genah Redding

WHAT: The Body

WHERE: The Hobgoblin Playhouse on Gardner, 1516 N. Gardner St.

WHY: When one mysterious death connects four groups of neighbors, what could go wrong? Writer/producer Janna King and writer/actor Genah Redding have crafted four darkly comedic short plays that each question what is right, what is moral and what sells. The body connects them all. Janna and Genah humorously put grief, infidelity, addiction, social media obsession, OnlyFans and corporate greed on the table. Who the body is isn’t as important as what it reveals about the witnesses in each vignette. The ensemble cast of Allen Barstow (co-producer/director), Alyssa Berkowitz, Ted Coonradt, Leah Frires, Dom Johnson, Kara O’Connor and Peter Schiavelli deliver performances that will leave you thinking and laughing at the same time.
