World Premiere The Jamb Written by J. Stephen Brantley Directed by Susan Lee Produced by Susan Lee, Kerr Seth Lordygan and Erin Treanor Featuring Kenlyn Kanouse, Garrett Liggett, Kerr Seth Lordygan, and Brad C. Wilcox Opening January 15, 2010 Eclectic Company Theatre Critics say "The Jamb" "has some fine acting", has "strangely beautiful language", "directed with inventiveness", and "absolutely worth seeing".
	Life On Its Side was created by director/writer/producer Susan Lee to create film and theater projects that break the boundaries and expectations of what a woman in this industry can do. An avid admirer of Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez, Susan has created several shorts films that have a harder edge than usually expected from a woman. She believes that female writers and directors don't have to be shackled with the expectation of only being able to direct "victim of the week" films or "three hanky" type films. She wants to make films where asses get kicked and the budget includes a substantial amount for blood. But her unique voice strives to bring character and depth to the edgy fare that she creates. Just because a character can kick ass doesn't mean she can't have doubts and passion and feelings without being a cardboard cut-out - all mean or all messed up. She believes in creating female characters who are real and complicated and honest. And who can kick some serious ass. Recent productions include the critically acclaimed production of "Gross Indecency, the Three Trials of Oscar Wilde" and "Mastermind", part of the Eclectic Company Theatre's "Hurricane Season" one act play festival and competition.
