ALIEN STATUS by James Bartelle
Directed by Cuba Hatheway

Extraterrestrials busk in the French Quarter. Diego pours a cup of coffee. A mailman's truck has just been stolen. And strange government agents are asking some suspicion-raising questions. ALIEN STATUS is a wild, lyrical, and hilarious new work set in New Orleans' Bywater neighborhood that skewers assumptions about race and refuge, and delivers with the one-two punch of a triple espresso.

A camera breaks and four friends conjure spirits (both spectral and alcoholic) as they unravel four interwoven narratives spanning seven centuries: a warped fairy tale about two sisters and a treehouse astronomer; a retelling of Edgar Allan Poe’s The Fall of the House of Usher; a purgatorial intermezzo about Scheherazade and the ghost of Thelonious Monk; and a contemporary fable about a subway murder.
