"Copulation of serpents determined my destiny. Boyish, unmanly, I ventured, adventured my way into forests primeval; glanced down in the dirt, in the dirt-trodden path, where I witnessed the scaly sinews of snakes intertwining in love..."
A new expressionistic verse tragedy, in which a young boy slaughters a pair of copulating snakes, and is cursed to spend his life as a double-gendered voyeur -- a prophet, both male and female, whose visions of the future are ridiculed by their subjects.
WARNING: may contain graphic descriptions of violent and sexual acts.
Also featuring storytelling by Christy Marie Kent and Jena Young!
Day passes start at just $16! Advance tickets can be purchased through the Minnesota Fringe website: www.fringefestival.org
