A Folk Riot Production | Presented in Partnership with the André Cailloux Center for Performing Arts and Cultural JusticeMarcel had big dreams of being a famous rockstar remembered and adored by all. Now he’s on his deathbed with dementia, a grieving family who never really knew him, and a secret he swore he’d take to his grave. Lavinia, a mysterious woman’s name that he keeps screaming. Is she the key to finally unlocking the story of their family’s patriarch that they never truly knew? Can we carry the weight of the sins of our fathers, or will the knowledge alone drag us to hell with them?
