Every day feels exactly the same for the employees at the Opera Street Bookstore: talking about pop culture, taking never-ending smoke breaks, dealing with insane customers, and suffering the whims of their flaky manager. Their dead end jobs turn deadly, though, when a sketchy customer sells them a strange book. Written in a language nobody understands, two brothers and their militant feminist witch BFF try to decode it while sinister forces close in around them. It turns out that the book is a hot commodity, and the people who want to get their hands on it aren’t people at all.
A play about workplace drudgery and cosmic dread, The First Annual Bookburners Convention is a horror-comedy by the writer of Ear.
