the echo theater company

On a dark and stormy night, a lone private eye investigates a crime everyone wants to forget. It’ll definitely take more than one clown to figure this all out.

1940s NOIR theatre from a clown Point-of-View. I think we’re safe to assume somebody’s dead. Or somebody dies. The case will be solved or… well, there’s a case to be solved . .

WORD:

“a serious level-up from your average clown production”

– GIA ON THE MOVE (full review)

“Great Noir Fantasy Comedy with a twist!”

“stellar”

“An original dark clown comedy—clownedy?— with a deft cast that had me laughing from the first line and left me in tears.”

“Kept me laughing and wanting more every step of the way.”

“brilliant”

“I heard this was a terrific show, but it still surpassed my expectations. It amused, entertained, and ultimately surprised me. Wow.”

“That rare ability to engage the head, the heart and the soul simultaneously is what makes Dead Man feel less like a mystery and more like a theatrical act of magic.”

“the entire company works together like a finely tuned machine”

“Phenomenal storytelling.”

“A fantastical Gumshoe Delight!”

THANK YOU

Theatre can’t survive in a vacuum (supply your own Jr. High joke here). It takes a community.
