Presented in Partnership with the André Cailloux Center for Performing Arts and Cultural Justice
Marcel Pierre had big dreams of being a famous rockstar remembered and adored by all. Now he’s on his deathbed with dementia, a failed career, a grieving family who never really knew him, and a secret he swore he’d take to his grave. “Lavinia”–the name of a mysterious woman that he keeps screaming– is she the key to finally unlocking the story of the Pierre Family’s private patriarch? Can we carry the weight of the sins of our fathers, or will the knowledge alone drag us all to hell with them?
Come see what audience members are calling:
“raw, honest, and real”
“a true Black Southern Gothic: Shakespeare meets Edgar Allen Poe meets Toni Morrison.”
“deep, complex, and sometimes surprisingly comical”
