Edgar Wilson a new play by Katherine Ambrosio

Directed by Beth Ryan Troxell

A gifted boy, struggling with the brain injury caused by his abusive father, seeks the meaning of life, and a best friend. He and his Gypsy mother soldier through as they encounter trials as well as mystical happenings.


Katherine Ambrosio is pleased to be working with Elizabeth Ryan Troxell and RTB again, having previously collaborated with Sydnie Grosberg Ronga on The Tin Man. Katherine has authored numerous full-length, one-act and ten-minute plays which have been produced off-off Broadway as well as in upstate New York, notably by The New York State Theater Institute, Hubbard Hall, StageWorks, the Glimmer Globe Theater and ACT. She is the recipient of an Individual Artist’s Grant, funded by the NYS Council of the Arts, which supported the creation of the Docu-Drama, Cracked Pieces, which was produced in New York City as well as in venues around the Capital Region.  She wrote the screenplay for the short film, The Train to Moscow, which won First Place, Best in Festival at The Lake Placid Film Festival. Katherine is a graduate of Webster University’s Theatre Arts Conservatory. She is grateful to RTB for the opportunity to develop Edgar Wilson with its adult issues of domestic violence, PTSD and mental illness, as seen through the eyes of a gifted child.
