What is the cost of changing history?

The whimsical comedy of Pretty Theft expands into the epic journey of Flux’s fall production, August Schulenburg’s The Lesser Seductions of History. This play was written specifically for the actors of the Ensemble, and follows ten characters through each year of the 1960’s. History becomes as intimate as a lover when the decade’s fracture points of race, sex and war break and remake the characters. Fringe NYC award-winning director Heather Cohn teams up again with the playwright of Other Bodies, Riding the Bull and Rue.
