ZIN GALACTIC Spotlight: Brian Silliman

We’re thrilled to continue spotlighting the creative team of Zin Galactic and the Saloon at the Edge of the Universe by Adam Szymkowicz directed by Heather Cohn! Brian Silliman plays TUWEL, the leader of the Ring, who is described as having “green skin, puss filled boils. An arm growing out of his chest?” If anyone can act a third arm, it’s Brian, who appeared in Flux’s production of Once Upon A Bride There and our Food:Soul of Goldsboro. We’re so excited to welcome Brian back.

The questions are inspired by Adam’s joyful play—make sure to RSVP for the in-NYC 2/16 reading at 7:00pm ET!
