Must see
Decades before Professor Karass enters her office at an unnamed religious institution, a pastor and two hospital orderlies performed a failed exorcism in that same room. That, combined with a colleague’s reckless use of artificial intelligence to write Professor Karass’ course descriptions, makes her uneasy and frustrated. The lighting and set design — as well as the players openly expressing their own anger, unease, frustration and sorrow — draws the audience into the institution, putting them in suspense and eliciting laughs.
Presented by Madlads Productions at Mixed Blood Theater; 10 p.m. Aug. 2, 8:30 p.m. Aug. 5, 7 p.m. Aug. 8, 4 p.m. Aug. 10
