Synopsis

A cockroach smoking catnip. A bard lamenting over immortality. A boy stuck in a sticky situation. Three splinters caught in a collision of language, longing, and lobsters (who sometimes burst, and who sometimes burp). From Toronto Theatre Critics award-winning playwright Ho Ka Kei (Jeff Ho), Cockroach曱甴 is a coming-of-age play about the stories we tell ourselves to comfort, to survive, to resist, to overcome, and to be. (tarragontheatre.com)
