Days of the Dead Festival

Frigid New York gives you the chills in a two-week festival inspired by Mexico's dead-lifting Día de los Muertos, performed at the Kraine Theater and Under St. Marks. The lineup includes more than a dozen shows on themes of mortality and the afterlife, each performed only once or twice; among them are Eve Blackwater's folk-noir survey Brokeneck Girls: The Murder Ballad Musical!, Richard Width's Dracula take Mina, Alise Morales's journey of Harry Potter disillusionment The Girl Who Lived, Miguel Loyola mythic epic Odyssey and the Flowers of the Sun and Rising Sun Performance Company's one-act collection Here, Between and Beyond.
