The Vigil (or The Guided Cradle) -

A Medieval mercenary tortures a terrorist in 15th Century Prague while a young tourist in the 21st Century befriends a mysterious translator. A play about the danger of crossing over, THE VIGIL or THE GUIDED CRADLE is a chilling portrait of the art of torture-- its future created by its past. Winner of the 2010 Innovative Theater Award for Outstanding Full Length Script. "Just when you thought archaic forms of torture had lost their sex appeal, playwright Crystal Skillman unearths a particularly brutal form of coercion in THE VIGIL or THE GUIDED CRADLE." - Back Stage ***Critic's Pick***see less
