Awesome Theatre Presents MERCY KILLING

By:

Awesome Theatre Presents MERCY KILLING ImageAwesome Theatre, (TERROR-RAMA, (In Search Of) THE FUNNIEST PLAY EVER) announces THE WORLD PEREMIERE of Mercy Killing, the story of a serial killer and her girlfriend, a Grim Reaper navigating a tenuous romance while trying to evade detection by the authorities on either side of mortality.

MERCY KILLING is Awesome Theatre's tihrd production of its 2018 'lineup'. It is also the second of their new "ThursPlays' series, presenting 'Strange and Unusual Plays for Strange and Unusual People. They are funny, edgy and sexy 60 minute plays perfect for the casual or first time theatre goer, or a theatre fan looking for something fun and different.

Mercy is a barista is San Francisco. She's also a serial killer. But it's fine, the only person who knows is Thana, the Grim Reaper who keeps showing up at the murder scenes. She's also Mercy's girlfriend. Sort of. It's complicated, especially because Mercy keeps flirting with Angie, the blogger who hangs out at her coffee shop. Except Angie thinks there might be a serial killer in San Francisco. And there is, unless Mercy can stop. But if she stops, she'll never get to see Thana again, and that'll make it really hard to date. But so does Thana's ex, another Reaper, who also wants to know why there's a serial killer running around unreported. Will romance be another casualty of this serial killing spree?

Featuring: Olivia Brown, Stephanie Whigham, Noe Flores, and Hayley Bertlesen
