THE ELEVENTH HOUR, a ghost story by Peter Dizozza

Cockroach Bernstein's description of the December 30th, 2001 Performance:

"The Eleventh Hour" a Peter Dizozza production
Staring Toby Goodshank, Kimya Dawson, Abbey Soft, and
Me... as the ghost of a thirteen year old boy who
lures young Goodshank into a sordid web of sex and
psychosis. Enjoy.

Jeff Lewis and Cheryl LaRosa

The Eleventh Hour is an intimate adolescent ghost story set to a lush romantic score (The inspiration and outline to the story is a reordered listening of Bacharach/David's Soundtrack album of the Ross Hunter/Larry Kramer 1973 film version of Frank Capra's film of  James Hilton's novel "Lost Horizon.")  

There are three versions of "The Eleventh Hour," 

the March 1999 submission to La MaMa E.T.C.'s reading series
