A school haunted by troubled children, a mysterious disappearance in a forest, an encounter with the unknown on open waters. Three characters, three time periods, three tales of abduction and the intrusion of the uncanny into the lives of those who are taken, those who do the taking, and those who are left behind.
The first monologue contains Catholic institutional violence against children and young women
The show includes references to suicide, abduction, disappearance of a young woman, death of children, neglect of children, violence against women and children, hidden burials, use of alcohol, and the appearance (though not firing) of a vintage pistol.
A transcript and extended content note are available for this show. This show will have a masked performance on June 16th at 3:00pm.
Multi-award-winning theatre creators and three internationally renowned, queer, Canadian speculative fiction writers team up for this chilling new work.
