Everything I Need to Know I Learned in The Twilight Zone

Largely Literary Theater Company

Can you live your life with what The Twilight Zone has to teach you? Yes, and maybe you should. The proof is in this lighthearted two-person show based on the book of the same title by Mark Dawidziak.

This one-act play performed by Dawidziak and Largely Literary Theater company co-founder Sara Showman is a tribute to Rod Serling's timeless fantasy anthology series, but, on another level, it is a celebration of the life lessons, morality tales, inspirational guidelines and practical guidelines found in those classic episodes. The book of the same title by Mark Dawidziak (published by Thomas Dunne Books, with a foreword by Anne Serling) features 50 life lessons drawn from classic Twilight Zone episodes. Oct. 2 marks the 60th anniversary of The Twilight Zone, and this Largely Literary performance, followed by a question-and-answer session and book signing, is the ideal way to celebrate a fifth-dimension beyond that which is known to man -- a land as vast as space and as timeless as infinity.

Mark Dawidziak and Sara Showman are the co-founders of the Largely Literary Theater Company, founded in 2002 to promote literature, literacy and live theater. Showman, an east Tennessee native, also is a storyteller with a wide repertoire of programs for adults and children. Dawidziak, who has been the TV critic at Cleveland's The Plain Dealer since 1999, is the author or editor of about 25 books.

Part of the series Dystopia: Prophecies, Paranoia & Prediction, presented in collaboration with Baldwin Wallace University.
