A gang of teenage girls gathers in an abandoned treehouse to summon
the ghost of Pablo Escobar. Are they messing with the actual spirit
of the infamous cartel kingpin? Or are they really just messing
with each other? A roller coaster ride through the danger and
damage of girlhood - the teenage wasteland - has never been so much
twisted fun. Critic's Pick! "Highly entertaining - equally funny
and scary." - The New York TimesFour Stars! "Just when you think
you know where the play is heading, there's a disorienting coup de
theatre that leaves you shaken. Our Dear Dead Drug Lord isn't for
the faint of heart, but neither is coming of age." - Raven Snook,
Time Out Critic's Pick! "Highly entertaining - equally funny and
scary - the play starts off as a hoot and winds up a primal scream.
They're throwing quite a seance at the McGinn/Cazale Theater." -
Ben Brantley, The New York Times "As funny as it is violent and
dark... Our Dear Dead Drug Lord is not quiet, small, or apologetic.
It is loud and messy and truthful. It is incredibly complicated and
a thing of extreme beauty. It is everything in women that society
tells them they need to repress, and in this I found it incredibly
enjoyable and inspiring." - Brittany Crowell, New York Theatre
Guide "The challenges of female adolescence... explored with a
remarkably fresh, honest and sometimes hilarious perspective." -
Brian Scott Lipton, Theater Pizzazz "Unsettling... Scheer's
characters are brilliantly drawn... the work of a born playwright
and a unique new voice... As a story of female empowerment, it is
both scary and revealing." - Victor Gluck, Theater Scene "An
imaginative and ultimately savage new play... An offbeat Mean Girls
sort of dramedy that unexpectedly concludes in a violent burst of
magical realism." - Michael Sommers, New York Stage Review
