The play Pure Shock Value centers on the plight of three longtime Hollywood friends who are trying their damndest to make a film.
Play History
In 2006, KML launched into the genre with the world premiere of Peter Sinn Nachtrieb’s Hunter Gatherers, which received an extended three-month run at San Francisco’s Thick House Theater and went on to win both the Will Glickman Award for the best new play of the Bay Area (2006) and the Steinberg Award for the best new play produced outside of New York City. In 2009, Matt Pelfrey’s darkly comedic world premiere of Pure Shock Value exposed the absurd lengths people would go to in the name of fame.
