The Unrepentant Necrophile

A woman falls in love with a man as she prepares his corpse for burial. She has three days until the funeral, but three days just isn’t enough… A punk rock opera about a mortician and her body.

The Unrepentant Necrophile is a three-person, minimalist musical created with drums, electric bass and electric guitar. A loud, sexy and disturbing look at one woman’s desire-driven journey through the American wilderness, inspired by true events. Blending physical theatre, music and horror, it explores sexuality, consent and gender politics through the anarchistic lens of punk rock.

“As unapologetic a piece of theater as I’ve ever seen. It takes a true story and tells it in an amazingly unique way, without commenting on its admittedly difficult subject matter.” – Cincinnati City Beat
