"The Monster-Builder": Architectural Satire by "Freedomland" Writer

The dangerous allure of a world-famous "starchitect" proves irresistible to an idealistic young colleague in "The Monster-Builder", a sharply satirical attack on Modernism that builds to an all-out war between good and evil. This incisive comedy from Pulitzer Prize-nominated playwright Amy Freed ("Freedomland") finds personal and professional rivalries playing out in the striking glass home of uber-pretentious designer Gregor Zubrowski, whose masterful manipulations may mask a more sinister agenda.
