Life Jacket Theatre Company will present Gorey: The Secret Lives of Edward Gorey, a new play written and directed by Travis Russ, December 14-January 14 at the Sheen Center for Thought & Culture.

Gorey is described as "a fantasy memoir chronicling the mysterious life of artist and writer Edward Gorey." The production stars Andrew Dawson, Phil Gillen, and Aidan Sank, all as different iterations of Gorey who converse with their younger and older selves.

Life Jacket Theatre Company's mission is to create smart, original, and unpredictable theater. The company produces investigative works based on real-life stories, often engaging with the people whose stories they tell.
