"A summer surprise, actor John Caswell Jr's semi-autobiographical, highly experimental, scared-straight drama about the destructive force of alcoholism proved powerful without being didactic." -Chris Page, East Valley Tribune

HER, HER AGAIN, and HER ONCE MORE are beaten to a bloody
pulp by HIM... repeatedly. These three women find themselves trapped in the
chaotic and wet world that is their addiction. Bullets fly and vodka
drenches. Direct from two sold out runs in the Phoenix desert, SHOTS is an
addictive, assaulting, and soaking wet look into the psyche of an addict.
SHOTS: A LOVE STORY is written and directed by PTW's Founding Artistic Director, John Caswell Jr. and is made possible in part by p.a.v.e., the arts entrepreneurship program of The ASU School of Theatre and Film. PTW is proud to be presenting the piece at FringeNYC 2008!
Progressive Theatre Workshop serves as a malleable forum for the creation, development, and performance of highly original pieces of theatre. The work produced by PTW must always ask specific poignant questions regarding the dynamics of human existence and relations while simultaneously stretching the boundaries of live theatre as an art form. We seek to fulfill these requirements through the integration of carefully selected subject matter and the organic development of performance text and design. Additionally, we will utilize methods of theatricality that will ask our audiences to consider the stage as a place of evolution where experimental methods are married with historical standards in order to progress the art form of theatre into the future.
