YAGA
May 11 – June 6, 2027
Bad children are the softest, the easiest to eat; but a bad man’s bones hold power, and power tastes like salt.
YAGA is a genre-bending fairy tale meets whodunit, inspired by Baba Yaga, the witch who lives alone in the woods grinding the bones of the wicked.
A gruesome murder in a small town leads a local sheriff, a young detective, and a professor with a taste for younger men into a labyrinth of secret lives, ancient magic, and multiple suspects.
A play that gives voice to the wicked old witch, it’s part thriller, part revenge play, and part fun.
YAGA is currently being adapted into a series for Crave coming in 2026.
“★★★ 1/2. So damn good.”
