Heist Covered by SF Chronicle and Weekly

Hey everyone, the Chronicle gave Heist some great coverage in its 96 hours section this week. Check [here] to read it.

“If the title causes you to tilt your head quizzically, just wait until you see the show … Heist a Crow is moderately successful at conveying the sheer horror that the very notion of an eternal afterlife should generate in any reasonable person. And one sequence in particular—in which our hero is cast into the Void and subjected to profound darkness and isolation—is both technically impressive and eerily convincing.” -Chris Quinn [SF Weekly review here]

Come See: Heist a Crow

Friday and Saturday Nights at 8PM in June / $15 / Union Square

HEIST A CROW is an original, absurd comedy about the afterlife. Follow a newly-dead, recently-spurned thief and a disgruntled reaper through eternity and points elsewhere. Buzzing the metaphysics of Judeo-Christianity and Greek mythos in a blender, Heist a Crow is a family story about the not-so-desirable effects of inter-planar transport, life, death, shiny objects and subverting faith.

Matt Gunnison
Jay Middleton
Jesse Mueller
Carol Rhyu
Tony Sommers
Rana Weber
