“Overwhelming accomplishment in finding modern resonance in the story.
It feels relevant, theatrical and very producible. Honestly, I was blown away.”

Grant's latest play is an adaptation of Samuel Taylor Coleridge's epic and beloved poem THE RIME OF THE ANCIENT MARINER. A play with music, the adaptation is a dramatic expansion of Coleridge's haunting and enduring masterpiece. The classic tale springs to life onstage with live musicians and cunning theatricality and throws a timely and sharp focus on the pandemic of 2020.
