On Set with Theda Bara

Joey Merlo

February 6 - March 16

$25 – $89

Transport Group and Lucille Lortel Theatre present
On Set With Theda Bara
Written by Joey Merlo | Directed by Jack Serio | Performed by David Greenspan
February 6, 2024 – March 9, 2024

General admission tickets are $49 for previews, February 6–13, and $69 thereafter.

A limited number of $25 rush tickets will be available at each performance for audience members aged 40 and under (ID required).

In this hallucination of a one-person show, a genderqueer teen who goes missing and their gay detective father come face-to-face with the supernatural and consciousness-devouring Theda Bara, the real-life vamp and silent film star of the 1910s. ON SET WITH THEDA BARA is part gothic coming-of-age story and part campy melodrama about identity consumption and the horror of not knowing who you are.
