Desperate to cure his writer’s block, THE UNKNOWN follows Elliott as he retreats to a remote cabin—only to discover he may not be alone. As the boundaries between his work and his life collapse, Elliott begins to question everything he knows. Is he writing a thriller? Living one? Both? THE UNKNOWN is a provocative thriller that explores the fine line between fascination and obsession.
THE UNKNOWN features scenic design by Studio Bent, costume design by Sarah Laux, lighting design by Cha See, sound design by Caroline Eng, and music by Isobel Waller-Bridge. The production stage manager is Jason Hindelang, with production management by Hudson Theatrical Associates and Envoy Theatricals/Sam Dallas serving as general manager.
