Marin Theatre Company (MTC) kicks off its 2024/25 season with Yaga, a new mystery thriller from award-winning playwright Kat Sandler.
Direct from Toronto where it captured critical raves, this subversive dark comedy fairy tale begins as a classic whodunit that veers into supernatural territory. The play follows a detective who finds himself in a small town, wondering what the disappearance of the young heir to a yogurt fortune has to do with random lore about an old witch. Joining forces with the local female sheriff, the pair zero in on a cast of curious characters, including a sexy, whip-smart forensic bone expert whose shadowy past includes her healthy appetite for young men. Can they unravel the truth without getting caught up in the myth of Baba Yaga? The women of the town weave a tale of folklore and foul play that will have you laughing and keep you guessing until the very end.
