Two years after his sudden disappearance, struggling guitarist Johnny “Honeycomb” James returns to his small Georgia town a blues star, sparking rumors that he may have made a deal with the devil to attain his musical genius. Before long, however, it becomes clear he's not the only one with a secret.... Inspired by the myth of Robert Johnson, this haunting, Gothic play explores the power of belief and tests the thin veil between rumor and truth.

“Auspicious... a striking new Southern Gothic work.” —The New York Times

“Undeniably spooky. Absolutely enjoyable. You'll be frightened in the best way possible.” —THEATERMANIA
