DEVILS DON'T FORGET


written and directed by Bob Fisher

“It's like Dario Argento putting flowers on the grave of Raymond Chandler” - Nick Green w/The Reader

DEVILS DON'T FORGET – An amnesiac tries desperately to not remember his past, convinced that he was an accessory to some unspeakable evil. But his amnesia provides no refuge when devils he had hoped to forget return to collect their due. Inspired by 50’s hardboiled noir as well as classic Grand Guignol, DEVILS DON'T FORGET is an atmospheric descent into a metropolis populated with Femme Fatales, Punch Drunk Gangsters, and Shadowy Figures seemingly supernatural. It is the story of a man who tries to escape a demonic global conspiracy using self induced amnesia.

Praise from Don Hall at AWG!

Click to enlarge - Gabe Garza and Sarah Scanlon!!!

Both the script and the performances are genuinely top-notch. The tone is evenly divided between the ribald and raw and the serious and horrifying and the thematic plate-spinning is both hysterical and nerve-racking to watch. Fisher has been churning out his unique brand of dark humor for a while now and his command of both his voice and the almost painterly use of light and color are as strong as they have ever been.

We close this Saturday April 2nd!

Only 2 shows left - Friday and Saturday at 10pm - Both over half sold!

Meet The Cast - Gabe Garza

Gabe Garza, playing "Rudy the Rhino", has been acting in Chicago for a decade. THE MEATLOCKER is his second Mammals production. The Mammals just can't get enough of him. We believe he is the perfect amalgamation of Zero Mostel and Marlon Brando. Last year he starred as "Dumdum" in DEVILS DON'T FORGET. He is thrilled to be working with such a wonderful cast and crew. Come check him out in THE MEATLOCKER

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Mammals Theatre Company presents

THE MEATLOCKER

written and directed by Bob Fisher

THE MEATLOCKER is the tale of a boxer haunted by demons from his past warning that if he goes down for the full ten count, even if it's a dive, he wont ever get back up. Every time the boxer steps on the mat, he is fighting for his life. The real trouble occurs when the boxer meets a bookie who wont take no for an answer to a fixed fight.

THE MEATLOCKER is the third of three plays in a cycle entitled THE NOIR TRIPTYCH. Part ONE was BREED WITH ME, produced in January of 2010. Part TWO was DEVILS DON'T FORGET, previously presented in Spring of 2009.
