Owl thought they had left their hometown in Iowa for good, but the
promise of a story hidden in the catacombs of the historic Cassandra
Theater brings them back fifteen years later. The story is not
centered on the theater itself, however, but on Madeleine Grey, the
theater's star actress and Owl's high school crush, and her twisted
family tree.
Apollo Weeps is a love letter to theater and the twisting plots of
Stephen Sondheim musicals. It is a modern adaptation of The Phantom
of the Opera, as well as a meditation on race in America: Owl, a
transracial Chinese adoptee, uncovers a story about a Black actor in
the Midwest and the generational trauma his descendants face.
Across generations, a family tree's roots run deep.
