Ben Rock Breaths Life into Baal
There are very few places darker and more terrifying than the recesses of the human mind and the buried wickedness that resides there. Sometimes these feelings and notions seep out into the real world despite our best efforts to keep a handle on them, and that, dear friends, is the essence of psychological horror. Get ready to meet Baal, a new play from Ben Rock.
Rock will be bringing this creepy tale of a very disturbed man to the stage from January 15th to February 20th, 2010 in Los Angeles, California. Check out the trailer for the play and click on the image below for more details, watch a couple of more teaser videos, and of course to buy tickets.
Synopsis
“Take a hallucinatory slide on the downward spiral of drunken, dissolute poet Baal. At once genius and madman, Baal will seductively lift you up and decadently drag you down into his journey of excessive, sensual experience. Sacred Fools has joined forces with award-winning film/TV/viral director Ben Rock (Warner Bros.’ Alien Raiders, The Burkittsville 7, Shadow of the Blair Witch, True Blood, The 4400) to bring you Brecht’s poetic play in a fierce new translation by esteemed playwright Peter Mellencamp, complete with onstage film installments and an original, urban-eclectic score by composer Kays Alatrakchi.”
