inventive adaptation of Les Liaisons Dangereuses, "Quartet," as part
of the Bailiwick Theater's Summer Director's Festival in Chicago.
In the course of his career, Brad has been involved in theater productions
in Houston, Chicago and New York City as dramaturg, director and playwright,
having his first play, "Café Con Vos" produced in 1996 at Main Street
Theater in Houston, Texas. Currently, Brad is a second year doctoral

early modern legal history and ancien regime gender politics. His
own "dangerous acquaintance" with Choderlos de Laclos' novel began

novel as it has been interpreted and adapted for the stage and screen. |

Michael
Daly (set design) |
 |
| Michael
Daly has been building things since he was able to crawl to his father's
tool chest. As an artisan in the Renaissance Fair circuit his creations
have ended up in galleries, MTV, various cable channels, several times
in Rolling Stone magazine, and the Daily News. Referred to in the
Village Voice as someone "who looks as menacing as a clinically depressed
rock star", Michael is pleased to be making his NYC theater debut
as set designer and master carpenter for this production. |

Frank
Cwiklik (lights/sound design) |
 |
| FRANK
CWIKLIK, Artistic Director of DMTheatrics, has within four short years
risen from obscurity to semi-sort of obscurity, becoming in the process
one of the most promising and acclaimed young directors on the NYC
theater scene. Recipient of a 2002 OOBR Award for Outstanding Production
for his adaptation of Orson Welles' The Stranger, Cwiklik has through
tireless hard work and relentless energy amassed an impressive body
of work, having produced, written, directed, or performed in dozens
of shows since the premiere of his cult horror-comedy, Girls' School
Vampire, in 1999. First working under the auspices of Ian W. Hill
at the late, lamented Todo Con Nada, and now at the Horse Trade Theater
Group spaces, his work has ranged from the sex farce of Amazons in
Chains; to the dark S&M landscape of Bitch Macbeth; from the white
trash musical satire House of Trash; to the knockabout camp-noir of
Quicksand; from the brutal pessimism of Salome; to the aching romanticism
of Twenty; and his ongoing series of adaptations of the works of the
late Edward D. Wood, Jr., including the smash hits Orgy of the Dead
(co-produced with Trav S.D.) and the unstoppable The Fugitive Girls!
(recently enjoying its third production at the St. Marks Theater).
His graphic designs have been featured across the world wide web and
at the venerable Kim's Video of Greenwich Village; his sound designs
have graced a number of independent features and off-off-Broadway
productions. He is finally making good his threat on expanding into
film early next year, and will begin a series of internet radio plays
this winter. If you're wondering when he finds time to sleep, he doesn't.

John
Sciorra (asst. set designer) |
 |
| Born
to Italian immigrant parents, John grew up listening to stories about
his family's struggle to come to America, life during the war, as
well as many other stories. A storyteller at heart, John has often
heard his friends complain that he talks too much. John became interested
in theater and film at a young age, creating claymation shorts with
his father's 8mm camera. He also played a chimney sweep in his elementary
school production of Mary Poppins, was a dancer and played Max in
his Junior High School's production of Pajama Game, produced his high
school’s original musical twice and was band leader all 4 years.
John played Donna's cousin in the film True Love and recently played
a squire (some say a fetish freak) for Halloween. Although Dan Maccarone
still doesn’t believe it, John was recently inspired again by
the stunning DM Theatrics production of House of Trash. |
