Kayfabe

The Ballard Underground
2220 NW Market Street Seattle

The Greek pantheon and professional wrestling collide in Kayfabe, a no-holds-barred family dramedy. After a tragic in-ring accident leaves their father dead, the estranged children of the wrestler, Antaeus, meet to hash out his legacy. But as memories of their father are shared, they soon realize that the line between good and bad is far more complicated than what it seems. Based loosely on the Labors of Hercules, Kayfabe blurs the lines between what is real and what is scripted. Between honoring legacy and making your own. The play features intense but fun physical characterizations, a deep exploration of family and a healthy dose of clever wordplay. See it at The Ballard Underground in Seattle.
