The Pulp Stage theatre company will be performing a world premiere adaptation of Alex Shvartsman's short story "Explaining Cthulhu To Grandma": When Sylvia gets Cthulhu on pawn, she thinks she's made a great score for her grandmother's shop. Grandma disagrees. Now Sylvia must find a way to sell the volatile god while making sure it doesn't fall into the wrong hands.

Evan J. Peterson will perform a poetic diatribe of cyclopean proportion!

The Pulp Stage

The Pulp Stage provides live storytelling for fans of science fiction, fantasy and suspense. Their current project is the creation of Prime Plays. These are stories told through theatrical dialogue and can carry an evening with just actors reading off of tablets. Since the start of project, the company has produced over 35 Prime Plays. Coming up in December, the company will present an epic single-night version of their science fiction trilogy BOX, co-authored by acclaimed novelist, Tina Connolly, and Pulp Stage artistic director, Matt Haynes.
