Playing with Death

Jaime is sitting down to eat breakfast at the kitchen table before she starts her first day of work after graduating from law school; when Death comes to reap her soul. Thus begins a battle of wits.

About the Playwright, Eric Fetske

Eric Fetske has been doing theatre/improv since 2012. He takes classes like photography and playwriting to hopefully spark inspiration to continue on his own time, but doesn’t.  But hopefully a win here will light the flame to write the craziness in his brain into the plays and movies he’s dreamt…or he’ll just be an awesome D&D DM. 

Meet the Director and Cast

Laura Luke (Director) is directing for FreeFall Stage. She is grateful for the opportunity and to be a part of the SacTown Play Festival and to work with the FreeFall Family.  It’s so exciting to work with everyone here, a special thank you to Tyler and Cat -it’s a blessing to work with such talented Actors.

In addition to directing, Laura also enjoys acting, costuming, and playwriting.
