Lantern Theatre is a professional theatre company based out of Dana Point, California. Our theatre focuses on experimental, absurdist and post-structuralist works, with the mission of advancing theatre and developing new forms of storytelling for the stage. "City of Dana," our original, made-for-podcast, theatrical comedy series, features stories that take place at the intersection of science and art. The series provides us a chance to showcase various up-and-coming playwrights who share Lantern Theatre's artistic mission: reinventing theatre and expanding the limits of theatrical arts. Aside from our original productions, Lantern Theatre will also be highlighting works from the past, comedies and dramas that we feel are under-performed by other theatres.

TRAILER: The Foxes (A Comedy of Moralities)
When Sarai, a gambling addict, is sued by The Council of Pathetiques, she must decide between forfeiting her riches and consulting Tuckerson, a local philosopher of dubious reputation. At the heart of "The Foxes," playwright Jordan Paul Sullivan asks the question: "In a world where absolute good and evil do not exist, where all morality is relative, how does one find a sense of purpose?"
Customer Reviews
More shows like Pilgrim, please
I was amazed by the poetry, science and imagination of Pilgrim. Really preferred this series over The Foxes. The Foxes was a bit too philosophical, heady for me. Pilgrim was stunning, well-written, beautiful. I really hope it gets made into a stage play. It’s been a month since I finished, and I’m still being haunted by Pilgrim.
5/5
