See it if you've done your homework. This ain't your mother's traditional musical or play. Come prepared. It's intelligent, hypnotic & VERY different.
Don't see it if you need to be spoon-fed a clear plot arc twist & resolve w/o having to think or blink. You'll be forced to THINK during & TALK afterwards. Read more

“A singular experience. The eerie, nihilistic, Strindbergian performance hits the audience with a visceral and twisting silent terror...A world that stirs our most profound fears...The movement work is incredibly strong...There is clearly a linear structure to the production, but it is best experienced in waves.

“This masterpiece took three years to workshop in Los Angeles and was well worth the time spent. I love experimental theater when it’s created from ideas. This action/play is just that...This stimulating, gratifying and for some mystifying play is well worth your time. It speaks to our modern social dilemmas in silence, music and new forms of dance. It is a tragicomedy of philosophies and ideologies worthy of Charlie Chaplin. I hope there is more to come.”
