Sometimes the funniest theater, happens to involve death.

Such is the case of Mister, Mister, the dark comedy from Nobel Prize laureate Günter Grass about murder, fame, and less-than-innocent childhood. The show is set to make its Philadelpha premiere with Quince Productions this month, running from October 2nd to the 11th, and again Oct. 15th through the 25th.

The production, with 10 days at the Walnut Street Theatre and 10 more at the Shubin Theatre near Headhouse Square, follows the misadventures of Bollin, an obsessively methodical serial killer, who murders by series, jumping from one random group to another — teenagers, forest rangers, opera singers, etc. in his murderous and often-foiled pursuit of the “law of series.”

With Halloween around the corner, this just might be the sinister type of laughter you’re looking for.
