TASP has recently begun development on our second original documentary project, tentatively titled Daguerreotype, centered around Civil War photographer Mathew Brady. An exploration of history, memory, image, and reality by a blind aging photographer and his catatonic Transcendentalist wife, Daguerreotype is ultimately a play about love and loyalty in an age that is quickly drawing to a close. Daguerreotype will be developed over the next six months and will premiere in early August in New York City.
