"There have been numerous pieces of theatre, film, television, and literature that have embarked on a journey into the psychologically violent depths of the social impact of female body image on the lives of women and young girls. Big Girls Club...is maybe the most direct and biting I have experienced”
– Matt Johnston, nytheatre.com, on ETG's 2009 show at The Brick Theater

A Pale Horse… is a theater piece about a generation’s ‘strife’ for happiness in modern American culture through an examination of human connection, cruelty, stupidity, and death. By tackling the universal issues of work, love, and faith, Everywhere Theatre Group is injecting dramatic moments with frightening outcomes to standard narrative subjects. Two lovers destroy themselves, blinded by their own selfishness. Office workers murder each other. Computers come to life and sing.

ETG creates playful observations of our society which often go hand in hand with human trash, such as internet sex videos, mental health and technological magical realism by forcing collisions between the everyday and the impossible. By dismantling mundane aspects of life and combining them with playful illogical improbabilities, they construct a multi-layered landscape of fresh and surprising performance. 

Everywhere Theatre Group is a Brooklyn based theater company founded by Teddy Nicholas, Leah Winkler and Chase Voorhees. ETG has self produced original plays in and around NYC, including Untitled- A Play at Dixon Place, participation in Sintesi Dogpile with The Ontological-Hysteric Incubator, Big Girls Club: Happy Dance Dance Princess Show! at The Brick Theater, and The Formula Play at HERE Arts Center).
