Fresh Ground new works

Commissions

AfterImage is a short story by celebrated writer Michael Crummey. Set in the Newfoundland mining company town of Buchans, the story revolves around a family that is created and devastated by an accidental electrocution and an unexpected adoption.

Building upon the key thematic elements of connectivity in families and conductivity in electricity, Newfoundland's Artistic Fraud shapes a signature piece driven by an ensemble cast, an original choral music score and an electrified set. This structure contorts into all needed setting and properties, and in a decisively bold move for the company, illuminates with electrified sparks at key moments in the narrative.
