Plays in this Collection
Three Wishes
by Dan Borengasser, directed by David Durkee
When a woman rubs an old oil lamp while cleaning, a belligerent genie appears, wanting to know what her three wishes are, impatiently telling her, “Let’s get this over with.” She gets her three wishes, but the results are not what either of them would have ever expected.
Deepfake
by Alisa Zhulina, directed by Max Mars
Emily's journalistic assignment is to try out an AI humanoid robot boyfriend. When she opens up to him, he reveals his true colors.
Across a Crowded Room
by F.J. Hartland, directed by Natalie Wolf-Foster
To cross the room to meet a stranger--or NOT to cross the room? That is the question. This play weaves together the loving, joyful and hopeful moments of a relationship and the profoundly dark and soul - shifting ones. And we wonder if love is really enough….
One’s Cup of Tea
by Jeff Dunne, directed by John Haynes
When a pair of friends try out a new restaurant, they unexpectedly learn a little something about the value of frivolity from an eccentric waiter.
Safe Harbor
by James McLindon, directed by Lori Alsdurf
A doctor and a hospital attorney clash over whether the law allows an abortion to be performed on an endangered mother.
Jack the Stripper
by Lindsey Brown, directed by Katlyn Moser
With Jack's talent and Jenna as his talent manager, these siblings have started a lucrative business, catering to all of the bachelorette parties in town. But, they must face the music when an unexpected party guest witnesses his latest performance.
Coming up in 2025!
