THE PARENTICIDE CLUB

By Kristina Schramm

A satiric comedy about one club you definitely don't want your kids to join

“The Parenticide Club” is a dark comedy inspired by the tongue-in-cheek patricide stories of American author and journalist Ambrose Bierce. Written in the 1890s, audiences of the day greeted the tales with outrage both for their controversial subject matter and their indictment of Victorian society. Now more than 100 years later, you are invited to be a fly on the wall at the annual conclave of this secret society and watch as members reveal their stories …and the crimes of character that ultimately lead to their undoing.

Featuring:
Matthew Bonaccurso, Elana Elyse, Dan Hickey, Vincent Mahlera
