The Winding Sheet Outfit writes:
We are collaborative artists who like dark, vintage stories and quiet, pretty things. Our work is homegrown, full of live music, and concentrated heavily on atmosphere and attention to detail. The Winding Sheet Outfit was born at Minnesota Fringe in 2012. Our first show was Birds of Passage, a tale of immigrant sea crossings. Since then, we have told the sad tale of spiritualist sisters (The Memory Box of the Sisters Fox), the true story of a much-maligned noble “murderess” (Blood Nocturne), the yearning of an artist to be truly seen for his passions (You Are Cordially Invited to the Life and Death of Edward Lear), an examination of Lewis Carroll’s fascination with the real-life Alice (…And What Alice Found There), and placed Victorian poetry and toy theater pieces in traveling tents and an ice shanty (The Theatre of the Tiny Clandestines). We are currently developing a show for when Fringe returns. It is full of old traditions, dark forests, and spirits among the trees.
