Opening Friday, March 20, “Dead Ringer” is a dark comedy set in an abstract Wild West. This wicked- ly twisted curiosity of a play was a winner in the 2005 BBC International Playwriting Contest and has been called a “win- ning combination of film noir westerns” by The New York Times. The play centers around Tyrus Cole, a horse trainer, who lives on a ranch with his invalid sister, Mary. Because he can’t watch her during the day, Tyrus con- fines Mary to a root cellar. When Dwight Foley arrives at the ranch seeking help with his horse, he and Mary fall in love and begin plot- ting the demise of Tyrus and their eventual escape. Their plan escalates, and in the end, the three find themselves trapped in a complex web of greed and secrets. This production is intended for mature audi- ences only.
