“The Myling” by Adrian Cory, directed by Tegan Kehoe — In the dead of winter, a loving family of four is plagued by tales of the Myling – and the dark secret the parents have been hiding for thirteen years. (Read the dramaturg’s note on this segment.)

“The Boy Who Drew Cats” by Greg Lam, directed by Laura Corliss — A boy is compelled to draw pictures of cats, to the chagrin of everyone else in his life. But are the cats more than they seem? (Read the dramaturg’s note on this segment.)

“La Siguanaba” by Elizabeth Salazar, directed by Joye Thaller — When a fruit plantation worker’s husband is mysteriously killed, she can’t shake her curiosity about the creature rumored to have done the deed. (Read the director’s interview of the playwright.)
