THE WOODEN LAMB is the inaugural show for Elbow Grease Theatre and a wonderful new piece of theater from emerging voice Tessa Williams.

Thanks for stopping by! We're here raising funds for Elbow Grease Theatre’s 2012 production of The Wooden Lamb, a new play by Tessa Leigh Williams. With your help, we can bring this text to the stage!

The Tale of The Wooden Lamb

The Wooden Lamb is a timeless yet old-timey murder mystery exploring the boundaries of the radio play genre and what happens when it intersects with the stage. Socialites Dillard Abernathy and Veronica Shaghorn find a mysterious gift in their parlour, which subsequently explodes and kills their trusty butler. Convinced the explosive was intended for them, the couple uses everything they've got to get to the bottom of the mystery, which includes vetting some unannounced and mysterious house guests (none of whom are as they seem).

Your Generous Donations

As an upstart artistic endeavor by recent college graduates, we lack the funds to pay for many of the essentials for putting up a production. We are incredibly lucky to have a beautiful performance space, but unfortunately our production can't consist of a stage alone.

That's where you come in. Funds raised for this project will go directly to the creative costs of production: set, costumes, props, publicity, stipends and more. While every person working on The Wooden Lamb is either volunteering their time or working at a fraction of their fee, the costs do add up. So check out some of our lovely Rewards, and throw a couple dollars in the pot if you can!

We Love You

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit our page! Your support and donations are what make our project possible; this show literally couldn't happen without you. Happy New Year to one and all, and we hope to see you in the audience!
