BRUNCH

Clarissa really doesn't want to die alone, and she's on the hunt for the guy who will be there when she takes her last breath. In this darkly comedic investigation of female tropes, we brunch, watch a live autopsy and marry the man who won't take no for an answer.

Three AND A HALF Anne Franks

Three people audition to play Anne Frank in a production that could not obtain the rights to a single word from Anne’s diary. As interpretations vary, we begin to see the difference between who Anne Frank was and who we need her to be. With biting humor, this play explores complications of privacy and authorship, appropriation, race and Jewish identity, and the performance of history.

(Available as Full-Length and as a Short Play)

It's only day two and now he must interact with a real live woman named Pocket.

Don’t Walk Home in that shit, girl!

Four hopefuls audition to be the next woman to be murdered by a man wearing a chicken mask. A play that challenges the roles we ask performers to fit into and asks if they fit.

LEAVE THE BALCONY OPEN

May is standing in the way of control. June is trying to hold out. Jon really wants a hug. Silent Gen is still looking up at that broken window, and everyone knows why, but never says anything. On a rural college campus where there have been so many deaths that 21 has become old-age and proximity to death defines your social status, four soon-to-be-graduates party, scream and learn how to move on.

The Really Important People

Lucie’s blog, ‘Miss Frosty’ is a sex blog for the empowered woman. Lynn, Clarissa, and Connie go out and get and bring it back to Lucie to write about. When Clarissa leaves the blog (may she nest in peace), the ladies put out an add for a new friend. When Abageal, a former sex-columnist arrives, it becomes clear that everyone has a different definition of "empowered."
