New Village Arts’ Freak On Ice

by The Editors on April 2, 2008

FrozenAs North County Times staff writer Pam Kragen says, “Describing “Frozen,” a play about a pedophile serial killer, as “beautiful” may sound like an oxymoron, but not to Stephen Elton, who directs a reading of Bryony Lavery’s drama in Carlsbad on April 7.’

Frozen” won London’s Barclay Award for Best New Play in 1998. It’s the story of an American research psychologist named Agnetha, who travels to London to interview Ralph —- a British pedophile imprisoned for the rape and murder of seven young girls, including 10-year-old Rhona, over a 25-year period. Agnetha is working on a thesis that serial killers are ill, not evil, and she meets with Ralph to test her theories.

The reading stars “multi-award-winning actor” Ron Choularton as Ralph. If you’re in the mood to spend Monday evening with a pedophilic serial killer, then bring your $5 to the New Village Arts theater at 2787B State St., Carlsbad. Frozen begins at 7:30 PM.

I think it’s important to realise that the audience spent last Monday evening at New Village Arts Theatre watching, and ‘enjoying’ the play ‘Frozen’, and seeing actors PORTRAYING various OTHER people (one playing a pedophilic serial killer).

I suspect you DID realise that, but your ‘marketing’ carried an air of sarcasm????
I have never been called a pedophilic before . . .

It’s only ‘pretend’.

Good site though, it’s got a fresh feel about it and a ‘younger’ approach than our UT-comic!!!
