The Shattered Glass Project is a theatre company with the mission to amplify the voices of theatre artists who have been marginalized on the basis of their gender or sex. We are a fringe theatre company with aspirations.
When Nils’s ex-girlfriend dies suddenly, she drags him back into a toxic online roleplay scene he swore he’d never return to. He’d been doing okay sticking to his seven-year plan for getting over their breakup – but now, everyone either blames him or expects him to have answers, and he’s getting nasty anonymous messages that might be coming from beyond the grave. A nuanced examination of identity, trauma, assault, grief, and mental health through an online world. Content notes include: suicide and child sexual abuse are discussed but not depicted, themes include transphobia and online bullying.
All New Cells is a ghost story and a dark comedy with horror/creepiness elements. Set almost entirely online, the setting leans into liminal spaces and the idea of what we show versus what we conceal on the internet. A copy of the script is available on request.
Key Competencies and Skills:
Experience with stage carpentry and construction and the ability to oversee others in the process of constructing the set. |
Ability to create sketches, renderings and/or a model for presentation, as well as drafting and working drawings, with details and specifications of colors, textures, finishes and furnishings. |
Experience sourcing construction supplies. |
Ability to analyze the text of the script.
