Hell Meets Henry Halfway | $40
May 6, 7 & 8 @ 8 pm

By Witold Gombrowicz. Text by Adriano Shaplin.
Philadelphia's famed Pig Iron Theatre Company's Hell Meets Henry Halfway is a heady cocktail of florid insults and absurd cruelties, dressed in tennis whites. Based on Polish literary provocateur Witold Gombrowicz's Gothic horror novel Possessed, Henry is set amid a decaying Eastern European aristocracy. It's a pitch-black comedy, set in a poisonous atmosphere of contempt and self-pity. sponsor info
