| Description |
 Not at all the story of Antigone, but a kaleidoscopic exploration of its themes interpreted through the delirious scribblings of the Three Fates (yes, those Three Fates) under the interfering eye of a character known as "The Shriek Operator", this mind-bending musing, this devilish dreamland will electrify even your jaded mind. By multiple-Obie-award-winning wordsmith Mac Wellman.
Join the circle as the Three Fates wind the strands of their own immortal lives into ours while they re-generate and distill one of the world's legends. This is not the Greek tragedy you read in school but a pre-historical/hysterical, paradoxical/paroxysmal celebration of storytelling that asks the musical question, "What is more weird than man... or woman?"
