About The Performance

Columbia University School of the Arts presents Asphyxia, a directing thesis production from current student Jorge Schultz.

The poetic psychological thriller follows a detective receiving inpatient treatment after the serial killer murdered his partner and takes the heart away. As more of the detective’s lovers fall victim, seemingly trivial memories invade his deteriorating mind. Could the answer to the perfect crime lie in his past… and his not-so-perfect heart?

Please be advised that this production contains depictions of murder, sex, and suicide.
