THE CAGE PROTECTS ME

LOFT STUDIO PREMIERE

Every night for the last ten years, a pack of wolves has descended upon the town of Drylake, Texas. Their unbroken siege has left one survivor standing, a man named Red, who by day, fortifies the town’s church, and by night, prays his work holds until the morning.

But to say Red is alone isn’t strictly true. Amidst the chaos, two voices in his head have come to life. They are his logical reasoning, Sense, and his paranoia, Omen, and though Red cannot see them, they are keeping him alive in this endless stalemate.

That is until a woman named Élan, on the run from her past, crashes into their lives. And with her arrival, old ghosts will resurface, and new fears will be brought to harrowing life.

The Cage Protects Me is a new ghost story by Giles Allen-Bowden, premiering in the Loft studio, that explores our relationship to the horrors of the world and the horrors we inflict, set against a Western frontier that has learned to push back.
