2nd Murderer by Kanika Asavari Vaish, directed by Frankie DiCiaccio, will be presented at The Flea Theater, October 9 - November 1, 2025.
What happens when the mind can no longer contain what the heart wants? In the cutthroat world of New York theater, two bumbling actors land minor roles in a production of Richard III, only to find themselves trapped in a real-life plot of murder & betrayal. When reality gives way to fantasy, they choose to meddle with the plot and confront the man in power. This pulse-pounding dark comedy dives down the rabbit hole to explore the existence of fate, purpose, and trusting that little voice in the back of your head.
The cast includes Milton Espinoza Jr., Jennifer Fouché*, Txai Frota*, Shawn K Jain*, Ahmad Maher*, Lizzie Markson*, TuQuyen Pham*, Flower Rios*, and Basil Rodericks* in principal roles. Remidy Dixon, Karen KW Li*, Cito Mena*, and Devon Savage as understudy.
