VILLAINY!…OR SOMETHING.
(Chimera Theatre Collective)

Show Description: VILLAINY! (…or something?) is afoot. Though honestly we don’t know if we really thought this whole thing through… so just… give us 20 minutes of your time… or else your will shall be mine! Erm… ours? Anyway… we shall see. *dramatic cape flip* And then maybe we’ll all learn something. So there!

Artist Description: Forged in 2015, Chimera Theatre Collective is a Portland, Maine-based theatre collective that takes the theatrical road less traveled as often as possible. This year, we’ve teamed up with our friends at Polyphonic Theatre Ensemble, another local troupe with a similar mission, to bring you a villainously good time.

Schedule: VILLAINY!…OR SOMETHING. is part of PF22 Event #1 and will be presented with two other short PF22 shows – JURASSIC JO’S DINO SHOW! and YOU SHOULD SMILE MORE – on the following schedule:

Thursday, June 16 @ 7:30PM – at Goodfire
