ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
Bubbie has filled the void of Covid isolation by solving as many word searches and crosswords as possible…until her latest puzzle turns out to be a cursed summoning incantation that conjures a Demon from the netherworld. When Bubbie welcomes him with delight, insisting he must be her long-lost goth grandson, how far will her well-intentioned neighbor Karen go to convince the old woman that something is horribly wrong? A pandemic take on a viral internet myth, this short piece weaves together classical music and heavy metal to pose thorny questions about chosen family and what constitutes true evil.
Originally commissioned by the Kennedy Center’s American Opera Initiative
