"Strategy Room" is a captivating video installation that features multiple rooms and screens, bringing to life General George Washington's strategic meeting on the eve of the crucial Battle of Princeton. This immersive experience takes place entirely within the historic Douglass House in Trenton.
The Douglass House, an authentic 18th-century building, served as Washington's actual headquarters before the battle and will be carefully dressed to reflect this era for both the filming and public display. Although this project commemorates the 250th anniversary of the Battle of Princeton, the short film will be installed as a lasting public exhibit at the Douglass House.

Roles Details
- Title
- Patrick Lamb

-
A young farmer from near the Quaker Bridge. Nervous in the presence of officers but not foolish. He is observant, dry, and quietly principled.
Lamb sees the hypocrisy on both sides of this conflict and is unmoved by cheap appeals to moral high ground from either. He is drawn in anyway, for reasons that have nothing to do with ideology. There is an unfinished sentence in this script that is the most raw moment in either room. The actor must know how to land it without melodrama.
He also has the only joke in the parlor which will also be critical to land. - Salary
