Spooky Action Theater

If you had one last chance to broadcast your story into the universe, what would you say? José Rivera’s Sonnets for an Old Century captures the psychic residue of ten lives in ten intimate, searing encounters in the afterlife. In this immersive production, audience members journey through the landscape of each character’s mind to experience their most treasured memories, clandestine confessions, and climactic revelations. This experiential DMV premiere, which utilizes the full architectural potential of Spooky Action’s home at the Universalist National Memorial Church, offers a kaleidoscopic vision of the joy and pain of the human condition.
