In the Forest, She Grew Fangs by Steven Spotswood

Presented by Also Known As Theatre
Boston Center for the Arts
November 16-December 2 2018

A walk through a mysterious forest late at night.  A young woman with a secret past. A social outcast who is simultaneously tormented and ignored.  A monster lurking in the shadows. And the most unpredictable spectre of them all, teenage hormones.  In the Forest, She Grew Fangs by Stephen Spotswood is a bloody fairy tale set in the world of a Gillian Flynn thriller, sprinkled with a dash of Gossip Girl, that delves into the power young women possess–and how they may use it if pushed too far. It is the second production in Also Known As Theatre’s debut season, which explores the reality that while we are each the hero of our own story, we may very well be the villain of someone else’s.
