White Rooster is a darkly funny tale of love, loss, and the peculiar inheritances we grapple with. Following a family tragedy, Min finds herself entangled with restless spirits, old curses, and bizarre traditions, as her fiancé refuses to stay dead and her sister's past lingers. Written and directed by Company Member Matthew C. Yee, this world premiere combines spooky folklore with offbeat humor to explore themes of grief and the complexities of moving on. The production runs from March 1 to April 30, 2026, at the Lookingglass Theatre Company.
