Qaid presented by Alchemy Theatre Society’s Production.
QAID is a spiritual thriller centered around an arrogant serial killer. QAID is the chilling story of a man who believes he is a mediator between the human soul and God. A self-proclaimed savior he proudly narrates his many gruesome murders as examples of how he has alleviated human suffering, by bringing his victims the freedom of death. Sitting in his prison cell, he attempts to influence and convert an inmate with his twisted philosophy. However, every argument he tries to make is effortlessly rebutted by his audience. Will a serial killer be able to defend his conscience? Or will he be consumed by the guilt of his actions? As the conversation progresses, you find yourself in the same moral turmoil as our protagonist – questioning your belief of what is right and what is wrong?
