What would you do, if you found yourself locked in a public bathroom with what appears to be a mythical monster? What then if that monster just wanted to talk about their ex? For frat boy Chase, this is exactly what happens while on his way to a drunken beach party. But if there is anyone qualified to give relationship advice, it is certainly not Chase.
A surrealist play set in a bodega bathroom (of all places). Curses, revenge, couples’ therapy, and a very drunk college student vibing with an emotionally distressed monster, Goblin Leithris is a love story gone terrible wrong.
