​

Romeo was done with Emily. But Emily wasn't through with him.

It’s Prom morning, and Emily has just been dumped. Her boyfriend Mark has traded her in for another girl, then made matters worse by sharing Emily’s furious response with his friends. Hurt, humiliated and carrying a secret of her own, Emily finds herself alone when a handsome young stranger named Romeo enters her life.

He’s charming, cocky and calls himself a magician. A few card tricks and silver dollars later, Romeo thinks he’s found an easy conquest. Emily invites him home, where an approaching storm provides the perfect backdrop for seduction. But there is something about Emily—and her strangely empty house—that Romeo doesn’t understand.

And when he finally discovers the truth, the trick is on him.

SACRIFICE is a darkly comic supernatural horror play about betrayal, guilt, revenge and the terrifying lengths a family will go to protect one of its own. What begins as a familiar tale of teenage heartbreak gradually twists into something far more sinister, building toward a macabre revelation in which love, justice and sacrifice become frighteningly difficult to tell apart.
