Reck opens on Thursday, October 2nd !!

Here's a look back at the rehearsal process, and a hint of what kind of insanity you should be prepared to see.
*Please note that Sarah Palin has not been cast in this production of Reck, but that her likeness was quite prominently on display at one of our rehearsal spaces.

Welcome!

Welcome to the EBE Production blog. Here you'll find behind the scenes photos, videos, and anecdotes from the rehearsal process of our October, 2008 show -- the world premiere of John Prescod's RECK.

To start you off, here are a couple of photos from an afternoon of table work in late August.
