The Pomegranate Tree

Created and directed by
Suz Pontillo & Ayla Wren Wallace

Theatre Off Jackson has been transformed into the Underworld itself for the union of Persephone and Hades — and you are invited!. 

The Pomegranate Tree extends this honor to you mortals, who are usually forbidden in such divine spaces — but the myths you’ve read about these immortal beings have been mere whispers of the truth you’ll encounter. These gods, in all their conflict and longing, are more like you than you may think… and they’re in desperate need of your wisdom.

Can you help them navigate love, death, and perhaps the hardest challenge of all: family? 

October 25th - November 9th
Immersive Installation @ Theatre Off Jackson

Tickets Are Live!

This is a devised theater piece disguised as a party, which asks you to dress up, enjoy libations, dance, and help craft the narrative anew each night. Our colorful cast of deities, some familiar, some strange, will transport you to an ethereal plane where your presence will make all the difference — whether you choose to engage with them directly, or observe them from afar.
