ABOUT THE PRODUCTION
MONSTER
From multi award-winning Canadian playwright MacIvor, Monster is a one-man show that explores the nature of evil and questions the possible link between media images of violence and actual crimes. Watch as one actor transforms into a series of characters whose lives are eerily related, taking the audience on a spellbinding ride into a horrible, grisly weekend in June. One weekend that sets off a shock wave of horror that reverberates throughout dozens of lives, in unexpected ways. Join Adam and a cast of characters, both familiar and strange, as they delve into the depths of darkness that surround the core of any man or woman. Are you a Monster?
