Summary
In a witty and satirical manner, this play follows the psychotic break of a boy called Vovochka who grows from a local vigilante against homosexual neighbors into the founder and leader of "Crematorium"--an organization tasked with identifying homosexuals across the country that uses medication, torture, and murder as tools to "save" Russian children from "pedophiles."
