Kurt sez, "'Stalking the Bogeyman' is a Kickstarter-funded play about the true story of my friend David Holthouse, an investigative journalists, who tracked down the man who sexually assaulted him as a child, 25 years later."
It addresses the enticement of revenge ("This time last year I had a gun, and a silencer, and a plan."), the challenges of coming to grips with the killer inside, and trying to close a long standing wound.
The play is opening Off-Broadway this weekend, at the New World Theater in NYC.
David's underlying story is also available online on This American Life.
Trigger warning to survivors of abuse. The play is partnering with 1in6, a nonprofit to help men who have had unwanted or abusive sexual experiences in childhood live healthier, happier lives.
(Thanks, Kurt!)
