CRYSTAL CREEK MOTEL
FLYING V

WORLD PREMIERE: Check in to the Crystal Creek Motel – Flying V’s latest, one-of-a-kind, theatrical experience!

It is 2003, somewhere up North. Well off the beaten path. A place you’d find yourself despite yourself. No questions asked as long as you pay in cash.
Everyone wants something more. At the Crystal Creek Motel, we’ve seen it all…

Join the flies on the wall and witness a series of terrible, mysterious, and beautiful nights!

This original and innovative production features six auteur directors – led by our very own Associate Artistic Director LEE LIEBESKIND – a stellar ensemble of actors, and a complement of Flying V’s finest designers, teaming together to tell twelve distinct stories set in the same motel room over the course of a year.


“March” (directed by Kelly Colburn) is a different piece altogether – a searing portrait of a drug addict (mind-blowing Madeline Key) as she spends the night wrestling with her demons and avoiding the concerned phone calls of her family. The scene uses multiple sudden blackouts, music and recorded messages to produce a cinematic fast-cut passage of time. Key’s ability to navigate these fast changes in the dark while conveying the wrenching reality of her situation is breathtaking."

“August,” directed by Kelly Colburn, is an entertainingly macabre comedy featuring Paz López as “The Woman Who is About To Eat” and Linda Bard in her recurring role as Debbie the food delivery worker,"
