Three vampires – with roots in Caribbean, Mesopotamian and European mythology – meet and are confronted with their different origins, ideas and experiences of immortality. As hybrid undead creatures, somewhere between humans and monsters, they roam the nights and ask what immortality can mean in a world where death is omnipresent and blood has become a commodity.
‘It is within our differences that we are both most powerful and most vulnerable...’ – Audre Lorde's words form the foundation of this play, which weaves together diasporic stories and does not dispel the ghosts of our present, but names them. For vampires know: ‘To name the haunts of our hurts is to envision the pressures and potentialities of being social subjects capable of envisioning future worlds together.’ (Juana María Rodríguez)
