tate present “Dead Ringer,”
written by Gino DiIorio and
directed by Robert Buck-
ingham.
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.
