In an otherworldly city obsessed with achieving absolute equity at all costs, Lily, a dissident at the end of her rope, meets Puck, the son of the city's charismatic matriarch. As their unlikely relationship grows and the city's enforcers close in, Lily and Puck hatch a terrifying plan: to revolt. Set in a tarnished society with twisted ideals, Evil Perfect is a messy and seductive play that attempts to reveal how good people with honorable intentions become evil.
"Evil Perfect activates something deep in the core of us, something wild and untamed and yet leaves us questioning and curious as to why...and if it's even a good thing," said Director Jonathan Shaboo when describing the world premiere play. Playwright Spencer Huffman described the production as “a gruesome and sexy satire - it'll make you laugh and squirm in equal parts. I think audiences will relish in the play's savagery."
The cast of Evil Perfect includes Danny Breslin+; Ashley Neal; Brandon Burns+; and Ebby Offord; with understudies Alexandra Attea, Gabriela Diaz, Dakotah Brown, and Ruby Vallejo.
The creative team includes Spencer Huffman+ (playwright); Jonathan Shaboo+ (director); Amal Mazen Salem (production manager); Miguel Salgado Jr. (stage manager); Aja Singletary+ (asst. director); Emma Crumpton (asst. stage manager); Delena Bradley (set designer); Heath Hays (sound designer); Henry Toohey (lighting designer); Ashley Greenwood (dramaturg) and Tristin Hall (fight/intimacy designer).
