Bashevis's Demons, featuring three short stories by Nobel Prize winner Isaac Bashevis Singer, will be presented Off-Broadway beginning December 18 at Theatre 154.

The tales include The Mirror, in which an ignored young wife steps through a mirror into a world where she can be the center of attention; The Last Demon, about a Jewish demon that fails to bring down a shtetl rabbi; and Kukeriku, a rooster’s tale of hope on the eve of a great slaughter.
