Underneath the Lintel

By Glen Berger
Directed by Chris Stockton

A Co-Production with Birnton Theatricals

An Impressive Presentation of Lovely Evidences

An eccentric librarian discovers a singular book in a return bin: 113 years overdue. Sparked by a message left in its margins, she embarks on a quest that takes her around the world and 2,000 years into the past. As clues compel her forward, literary explanations unravel, and she begins to traverse the murky ground of the mystical. The mysterious book forces the librarian to a reckoning, and discovery of hidden meaning that transcends the story within its pages.

“It’s hard to realize just how good Underneath the Lintel is until it’s over and you grasp where you are compared to where you started… This is an act that will stay with you long after you leave the theatre.” – DC Theatre Scene
