This is the story of a theatrical production so legendarily cursed, it sent three people to the hospital.

We’re starting our week off with a play so haunted, the cast and crew won’t even say its true name. Joseph Musumeci, DC area scenic and lighting designer, theater educator, and my longtime friend and colleague, joins Collected Possibilities to relive the greatest series of theatrical disasters he’s ever experienced.

Today we’re serving a super-sized portion of: The "Z Play”

This is the story of a friendly game of Manhunt that turned into a bloodbath.

We welcome David Pratt back to the Slice as our very first two time guest! David was so inspired by my dismal accounting of the Buckeye State in Wednesday's appropriately titled "The Worst Night in Cleveland" that he wanted to pile on and bury Ohio too, with a childhood tale of bullying and blood.

We wrap the week up by serving: You Could Slit My Throat
