Brooklyn, NY -- Just in time for the holidays! Mainspring Collective and The Brooklyn Lyceum present the first installment of their new children's theater series, Monster Literature, written and conceived by Daniel John Kelley. The first episode, 'Twas the Night Before...MONSTERS!' offers a new twist on an old classic when an evil wizard threatens to destroy the holiday spirit by changing the poem 'Twas the Night Before Christmas' by unleashing his army of silly monsters. Young heroine Benjy Bleeglehorn (along with her dashing sidekick, Bravo Kirkwood) must battle this army of misguided monsters with their wit and compassion in order to restore the poem and rediscover the spirit of the holidays. 'Twas the Night Before...MONSTERS, featuring original music and video elements, is original holiday fun for the whole family. Join us for some monstrous fun at the Brooklyn Lyceum as we kick off this new ongoing series!

About Mainspring Collective:
In May 2007, a group of women in the outer boroughs of New York City decided to form a theater company. Women with the desire to bring artistic voices from different disciplines to the same table, to collaborate and invent, experiment, and play. Focusing on the creation and interpretation of honest work that they believe in, Mainspring Collective is at times a voice, a fist, a heart, a brain; but always a source of fresh and forward-thinking work.

Daniel John Kelley (Playwright) has had his plays produced in NYC by The Mirror Repertory Company, The Gallery Players, The American Globe Theatre and The New York Theatre Experiment, in addition to several independent self produced ventures. More info at danieljohnkelley.com
