Michelle Kholos Brooks

Hitler’s Tasters

The play is inspired by the real life stories of the young women who were conscripted during WWII as taste testers. The girls leave home for “work” every morning, spend all day in a single room together, before heading home again at night (if they’re lucky). This dark comedy, set in the “eating room” follows four girls as they discuss politics, boys, movie stars and what it might feel like to be poisoned.

 

Hitler’s Tasters is the seventh play for American playwright Michelle Kholos Brooks, winning the Susan Glaspell Award and being named Best of Fringe 2019. Kholos Brooks continues to tour with Hitler’s Tasters across the United States.

Agatha Christie

The Rule of Three

Agatha Christie has done it again with this collection of three one-act plays. An Afternoon by the Seaside follows the lives of a group of people vacationing at the sea. News spreads quickly of an emerald necklace stolen from the wealthy and formidable Lady Beckman. When the Inspector shows up to search the beach huts, it becomes clear that everyone’s a suspect.

Set in a tiny, stark apartment, The Rats features a couple who rendezvous for a little extra-marital fun. But things quickly take a sinister turn when they discover a body … and that they’ve been secretly locked in.

The Patient, Mrs. Wingfield, lies in a hospital bed in a state of paralysis after falling from the balcony of her house. She is surrounded by family, but all is not what it seems. Did she fall, or was she pushed? Is there someone else in the room who knows the truth? Family bonds are tested as everyone begins to turn on each other.

Harold Pinter

One for the Road; Ashes to Ashes

White Rabbit returns for a second consecutive year to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the largest theatre festival in the world. This year, we will bring two pieces, performed on alternating days.

In Ashes to Ashes, Rebecca reveals her haunting past to Devlin in dreamlike snapshots of horror and atrocity. What bond holds these two together is stretched to breaking point as the truth is painfully revealed psychologically, emotionally and physically.

 

Perhaps Pinter’s most political theatrical statement, One for the Road, rings terrifyingly true as we enter our new decade. A room. A family. An office. A government in total control. Pinter creates a tense and disturbing vision of a world we have known and could know again.

The Gospel According to Thomas Jefferson, Charles Dickens and Count Leo Tolstoy: Discord

The play with the longest title, or “Discord” was our passion-project of 2019. We performed a one-night-only staged reading of the production in March, as a fundraiser before taking the show on the road to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August, where we did a run of 13 shows, before finishing up with a week-long production in October in Winterthur for our Swiss community to see the final product, fresh from our time on tour.

The Importance of Being Earnest

This timeless classic, presented with a modern twist, seemed the perfect maiden production for a fresh new little company - not to mention, it gave us the name of our mysterious white rabbit … Ernest! Our inaugural show was performed at Theater am Gleis in Winterthur, Switzerland.
