Trog and Clay: An Imagined History of the Electric Chair

Written by Michael Vukadinovich

Directed by Lizette Marie Morris

April 27 - May 12, 2012

The Factory Theatre

Trog and Clay is a wildly imaginative retelling of the genesis of the electric chair. Based on the actual trial transcripts of William Kemmler, the first person put to death by electrocution, this skewed comedy obscures the line between fact and invention, while wryly looking into America’s grim history.
