The Cultch and Prime Cuts Collective invite you to take a ride on a philosophical crime thriller, The Butcher. Who is the Butcher? At a police station a mysterious old man is found wearing a foreign military uniform and a Santa hat. A butcher’s hook hangs around his neck, and gouged on the end is a business card with the words, “Arrest me,” scrawled on it. As a lawyer, a police officer, and a translator struggle to unravel the truth, they uncover a past that won’t stay buried, and a decades-old quest for justice that must be served. Dark secrets come to light. A past that won’t stay buried. A decades-old quest for justice that must be served. The production we hear is not what you might expect and will have you guessing the entire time. The Butcher takes place in the Historic Theatre at The Cultch March 20th to March 31st. Tickets start from $22 and are available online at The Cultch.
