Grimly Handsome

A Senior Project in Theater and Performance Studies for Mikaela Boone

by Julia Jarcho

GRIMLY HANDSOME is a Senior Thesis in Directing for TAPS for Mikaela Boone.

Two down-and-out immigrants sell Christmas trees and occasionally murder their clients. Two cops attempt to solve a vicious killing spree. Three red pandas roam the city, consuming what remains. And, one woman is devoured by the circles that surround her.

This horror triptych will explore themes of transformation, perception, belonging, and identity. If you have any questions about the production, storyline, rehearsal process, or roles please contact Mikaela Boone at mikaela.boone@yale.edu.

This show includes violence, allusions to sexual violence, allusions to police brutality, body horror imagery, and flashing lights.
