She moves to the city from far, far away. The lights flash, the surfaces gleam. She tastes something in her mouth. She hopes it's her dreams...
IN A TILTED PLACE is a kaleidoscope of a play where lovers, addicts, mermaids, and other strange creatures all stumble through a bizarre, hilarious, and sometimes frightening reality- from Rockefeller Center to the High Line- and nothing is quite as anyone imagined it would be.

"Actor-author Troy Deutsch is clearly a font of talent... Deutsch's characters are vivid, his vision uncompromising, and his acting first rate." Backstage Magazine about LAKE WATER at IRT
"The biggest gift of THE FEAST is the alchemy of Courtney Ulrich's direction, which abstracts the familiar and leaves the audience in a kind of fugue state." StageBuddy
