TEDx Talks: The Murder Room is a horror/thriller inspired by the films Split and Misery. It is the 2nd play in the Thrillogy Series, written & directed by Michael Mizerany and an homage to everything that is horror - jump scares, dark humor, violent altercations and killers that just won’t die. Featuring performances by Phillip Magin and Stephen Simpson and produced by Compulsion Dance & Theater. About The Play: Paul Foster, an Emmy winning actor in a not-so-acclaimed daytime soap, is kidnapped, chained to a bed and threatened until he can give the acting performance of his life. Or more accurately for his life. As he and his psychotic captor play out the scenes, secrets are revealed, each one more twisted, demented and deranged than the last. *Advisory: TEDx Talks: The Murder Room contains adult themes and content including profanity, sexual situations and dialogue, an extended scene of violence and some gore.
