About the play

Online@theSpaceUK

August 15 - 30th

Written and directed by Karen Louisa Linton and performed by Ashley Ford, Front Window is a devilishly funny play that follows the quarantined investigations of a young woman. Equal parts Miss Havisham and Amelia Bedelia, the Woman spends her time watching her neighbors and memorizing their routines until she realizes one of them has gone missing.

Produced by Owl & Pussycat Theatre Co., this is the second collaboration between Ford and Linton, who previously mounted The Terrible Legend of Victoria Woodhull by Theo Salter at Hollywood Fringe Festival in 2018. All About the Stage wrote of their previous collaboration, “this holy trinity of theater is exciting, fresh and ready to be devoured like a delicious full course meal.”
