Hecate House
A Play by Christopher Adams-CoheN
CAST: 6 // 90 minutes
Caught in a treacherous storm while backpacking through the Black Forest, Jewish-American siblings Billie and John are offered shelter by a pair of dreamy Bavarian sisters who have seemingly raised one another in an abandoned old hunting lodge. Upon discovering the house’s connection to the cult of an ancient moon goddess, the group is unwittingly initiated into a transformative ritual which will force them to confront a painful collective past, face their darkest fears, and indulge their most carnal desires.
“Sophisticated, provocative, avant-garde . . . a mind binding trip leading deep into the subconscious. ”
“. . . an experimental experience that will stimulate all your senses.”
“In this audio-visual installation, the characters are asked to face their darkest fears and deepest desires – and so is the audience.”
