Loft Ensemble presents
Catalyst
Written and Directed by April Morrow

Following the 2014 world premiere, Loft Ensemble is proud to bring Catalyst to the 2015 Hollywood Fringe Festival. The play follows six young women who embark on a journey to battle their eating disorders before it consumes them. Sam , the new girl at an inpatient treatment facility, arrives at Renew Ranch hand in hand with ED; the silent, shadowy figure of her disorder. He stalks her, interfering with the world around her, and tries to strip away her strength as she steps away from his shadow and into the light. Inspired by a true story, Catalyst takes the audience inside Sam’s journey with music, movement and candid journal entries.

ABOUT LOFT ENSEMBLE

Loft Ensemble is a downtown Los Angeles theatre company based in the Arts District and a member of the LA Stage Alliance. The ensemble is led by Artistic Director Adam Chambers (star of Disney Channel’s Girl Vs. Monster and I Heart Vampires), and Managing Director Kevin Meoak (producer A Ring in Brooklyn – NoHo Arts 2012, LoveSick – Fringe NYC 2012, 2008 LA Weekly Awards, Assoc. Prod. Louis and Keely Live at the Sahara at The Matrix). The company was founded in 2007 by a group of actors who participated in a full year of Viewpoints workshops before producing any shows. Loft started full seasons in 2010, and has since presented over 20 original plays and several successful revivals. In 2012, Loft traveled to the New York International Fringe Festival and was recognized for Outstanding Ensemble with its production of LoveSick. The ensemble is one of the fastest growing companies in Los Angeles. Catalyst will be the first time Loft Ensemble has presented a show at the Hollywood Fringe Festival.
