"Who wants reality? I can get that for free. That's the whole point. I kind of have to."

There is an imperfection in the human mind - a crack, a flaw, a crevice - one that fascinates and repulses all those who find it. It is empty of all but impulse and appetite and the memory of hope. What if you looked over the edge? What if you fell? And after the fall, what would you see in the mirror?

Six performances. Five artists. Four brand-new short plays. Adapted by an all-star creative team from the original horror collection, it's time to get metaphysical in this twisted cabaret of the macabre. Created by Derek Dirlam, Jenna Papke, Tim Wick, and Jena Young, and with songs by My Very Friend!

Maximum Verbosity will also be producing a late-night cabaret April 29-30 called WASTED: The Comedy Horror Show, featuring storytelling, music, and physical comedy!

WARNING: contains tales of horror and dark fantasy, and consequently some disturbing and violent imagery, including both gunshots and references to sexual assault.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Phoenix Theater requires proof of vaccination and masking for entry to all shows.

ONLINE PRAISE FOR THE BOOK

"...delving into psychological horror and darker themes, though frequently with a healthy amount of comedy and acerbic wit...a lot of really ambitious material...some really heavy material, a good dose of fatalism and comedy...this is a dark book, both psychologically and often violently, and it's certainly not going to play to everyone's tastes. A lot of weird and fucked up shit, so consider yourself warned...the good far outweighs the bad here."
