A darkly comic physical submersion into life at the bottom of a glass and the spirits we all serve, barFlies delivers an exhilarating excursion to the edge. Conceived and developed by Aileen McCulloch with Christian Lisak, Andrew Thompson, and the Vagabond Core Ensemble. www.vagabondactingtroupe.org. Dinner and drinks at L2 available.

Vagabond Acting Troupe (VAT), founded in January, 1993, celebrates 16 years under the artistic direction of Aileen McCulloch. From their studio in Morgantown, PA, the ensemble company tours original physical theater works throughout the region, while offering a solo works festival, one act festival, and at least one original full length work each year in Philadelphia as the primary resident performing company at L2 Restaurant and Bar, 2201 South Street. The company offers year-round youth educational workshops in their home studio as part of their mission to serve youth. Garnering four Barrymore nominations (two for ensemble and two for collaborations) VAT has toured as far West as San Francisco and as far North as Boston. Up next for VAT is barFlies at the 2009 Philly Fringe.
