Covenant

Described as “a striking Southern Gothic work” (The New York Times), Covenant is a haunting new play that pushes the boundaries between myth and reality. Avery is desperate for a way out of her small Georgia town. When her childhood friend Johnny returns after making a name for himself as a blues star, Avery may have found her chance. But Johnny’s sudden fame leads to gossip that he made a deal with the devil to attain his newfound musical genius, and before long it becomes clear that he’s not the only one in town with a secret. A suspense-filled thriller that delivers one devilish twist after another, Covenant explores the gripping power of belief and the thin veil between rumor and truth. Shows prior to the Apr 9th opening night are preview shows, full-length, reduced-price performances scheduled during the final week of rehearsals while the creative team is fine-tuning the show before its official opening.
