PILGRIMS OF THE NIGHT

Trapped during a storm in a ferry terminal with no food, no electricity, and no cellular signal, these pilgrims of the night pass the time sharing salacious tales that range from adultery to a biblical flood. In the six tales of PILGRIMS OF THE NIGHT, and in the framing narrative, Jenkin explores many of the raw nerve ends in our society, the deep need to believe an absolute, while at the same time reveling in the gratification of the present, the difference between titillation and satisfaction, the bizarre nature of reality, and the real nature of the bizarre. -Times (Seattle) Jenkin s PILGRIMS OF THE NIGHT is a wonderful combination of innocence and guile, primitive impulses and sophisticated craft. Zombies, a headless woman, an island paradise, an erotically frustrated fry cook, a psychopathic neurosurgeon, a silver fairy, and a formerly live deer all make memorable impressions. -Post-Intelligencer (Seattle)_,
