Rain City Projects

Three worlds collide.

When visiting a college buddy whose wife was shot to death, Donald Everly finds himself entrenched in a whodunit. He shares suspicion with a greasy-haired detective, Castor Follett McSouly, that his old friend may be crafting an insurance scam. But things get complicated when a slinky stripper and violent bald man enter the picture. DOUBLE CLIMAX is the story of an innocent man caught between an insurance scam and bizarre love triangle. A mystery where deviance is submerged beneath lies and friendship is just a way to manipulate treachery. DOUBLE CLIMAX, K. Brian Neel's third solo play, is noir film live on stage.

It's 4AM, and "the working man" Brian is forced to take in his friend -- "the novelist" Parker Rockmonovich -- who has been thrown out of his apartment and needs a place to crash for the night.
