“Together with artists, we imagine theatre that has never been done before in places where it has never happened.”
— Anne Hamburger, Executive Artistic Director, En Garde Arts
Equal parts ghost story, house party, and theatrical séance, this bold new piece invites audiences into a world not unlike our own:
post-crisis, mid-recovery, and craving connection.
