In the darkness of the city, one light refuses to be extinguished. Part fantasy, part burlesque show, part macabre melodrama. Jeremy Menekseoglu takes you into a dark Dickensian city where a young girl struggles to keep her innocence in a world drowning in perversion and misery.

Review Round-Up
| Chicago Reader - Somewhat Recommended
"...Trouble is, Menekseoglu never explains these cryptic gestures. The result is an odd, metatheatrical coyness: the production tells you just enough to let you know there's a secret you can't solve. On the plus side, you don't absolutely have to solve it. Presented in the manner of a silent movie, complete with dialogue cards, Menekseoglu's tale of a sweet girl caught in appallingly grim--even, as the play progresses, Holocaust-like--circumstances is compelling for its own sake."
