GETTING SHELTER

$5.40$10.00

Getting Shelter is a monologue performed by a street person, Ugly (described as "an old man in rags"). He is, it seems, dead or dying, and in the half-life in between, he revisits a home of his desire and imagination, a place of shelter, safety and home.

Daniel Keene's collaboration with director Ariette Taylor—the Keene/Taylor Theatre Project—was critically acclaimed both locally and overseas.

Getting Shelter was first performed as part of KTTP Season 9 in 1999.

In the original KTTP production, the monologue is told to a group of hovering men, desperate for the secret to finding the shelter.
