The John Montgomery Theatre Company and Horse Trade present this world premiere production of Bob Brader's SPITTING IN THE FACE OF THE DEVIL, directed and developed by Suzanne Bachner, with Lighting Design and Technical Direction by Douglas Shearer.
Robert A. Brader, Sr. died on March 3, 2003. Everybody loved him, but nobody knew him. Now his son will reveal what nobody but he knows in SPITTING IN THE FACE OF THE DEVIL, a daring and highly personal solo show in the vein of Spalding Gray and Mike Daisey. The show is about the death of the author's father, a terrifying and abusive ex-Marine, and their tension-filled relationship, which is contrasted with the love of his supportive mother. The father harbors a huge secret which will be revealed halfway through the piece; this revelation comes as a gigantic and shocking surprise not only to the author, but also to the audience, who discovers this information along with him.
