Freshman year at college is hard when your roommate is weird, you’re feeling homesick, and a hook-handed serial killer is slashing girls’ throats. But if Lexi can discover what really happened to her high school best friend on that car ride to the movies, everything will be okay. In this existential slasher, Lexi and her friends learn what it means to grow up – and it’s not pretty.

Bump in the Night Theatre is proud to present Hookman by Lauren Yee!
