A flat tire at midnight leaves two young people all alone in the middle of a gloomy town. In that Gothic castle—their only refuge—time flows very differently from the outside world. Directed by Jim Sharman, this wild musical takes the audience far beyond all familiar conventions. The castle’s eccentric host and his extraordinary crew draw everyone who steps inside into a dark and seductive ritual. The rocket-fast rhythm and elements of absurd comedy are powerful enough to sweep the guests off their feet. Lasting until the first light of dawn, this nightmarish fairy tale completely erases the boundaries between genres. The audience is drawn into a bizarre time loop alongside the heroes of this colorful and boundless world on stage.
