About the show

During the 1929 Wall Street crash, financier J. G. Conwell faces ruin. Years earlier, he had built his fortune from an addictive painkilling syrup given to him by Mephisto. Offered a night to relive his youth in exchange for his soul, Conwell agrees; masked spectators follow the mostly silent characters through two repeating loops of scenes in a five-floor performance space.
