Jen Silverman's The Moors is a dark, surreal comedy that brilliantly subverts classic 19th-century Gothic literature—particularly the works of the Brontë sisters. It explores themes of loneliness, power, and visibility through a bizarre, sometimes violent, but darkly hilarious lens. Performances will be Oct. 28-Nov. 1.
