Marin Theatre Company Returns With ‘Yaga,’ a Delightfully Devious, True Detective-Style Thriller Sprinkled Liberally with Laughs – Oct. 10 thru Nov. 03
Calling all true crime fans! Don’t miss the first play of Marin Theatre’s 24/25 season, award-winning Canadian playwright Kat Sandler’s hit Yaga. This comedy with plenty of twists begins as a classic whodunit that veers into supernatural territory when the mythic Baba Yaga enters the story. A big-city detective finds himself in a small town, wondering what the disappearance of the young heir to a yogurt fortune has to do with random lore about an old witch. The women of the town then weave a tale of folklore and foul play that will have you laughing, and keep you guessing until the very end.
