The Season XI ensemble crafted a fantastical fable exploring friendship, bereavement, addiction, imposed norms, acceptance of difference and consent. Staged in a rich, imaginative world, displaced characters — a demon among mermaids, a princess and a pirate among fairies, a guardian of the fairies in the castle of the Underworld — confront an army of demons as they seek a way home.
