In this quirky and beautiful vaudevillian debut, Tara Azzopardi employs sharp social observation and a pop-culture universe from the past and present to explore the struggles we face in constructing our own identities, both public and private. Whether she's dating Caspar the Friendly Ghost, observing Agatha Christie in Giza, fleeing Albania in 1925, or walking the corridors of Alcatraz in 1962, Azzopardi consistently has an eye for the offbeat, the macabre, and the slapstick. Be prepared to leave all expectations behind when you enter the carnivalesque world of Last Stop, Lonesome Town.
