After setting out to find the perfect person for their pacts, they find each other. Through devising the perfect plan to seal their fates, they form an unforeseen emotional connection. Will their desire for each other surpass their desires for death? Find out at DOUBLE TAKES, running March 14th - 29th at the Planet Ant Black Box.
