A funeral parlor in a small Midwestern town is the setting for three darkly funny and touching short plays. Meet Emil, a respectable, mild-mannered undertaker; Mac, an upper-class drifter and jewelry thief; and Virginia, the suburban widow of a wheeler-dealer contractor. Award-winning playwright Jeffrey Hatcher’s trio of incisively witty narratives explore the extent to which we all hold on to memories, money, life, and love. | Buy tickets |

After being fired from Disneyland, struggling actor Alex More lands a job curating Barbra Streisand’s

relationship. Jonathan Tolin’s fictional chronicle is an outrageous comedy about the price of fame, the
cost of things, and the oddest of odd jobs.
This production is a collaboration with Renaissance Theaterworks.

In this wonderfully inventive parody of the 1935 adventure film, the entire plot is reenacted by a cast of only four actors, giving this tale a comic twist. Follow the adventures of our handsome hero, Richard Hannay (complete with stiff upper-lip) as he encounters dastardly murders, double-crossing secret agents, and, of course, devastatingly beautiful women. Thus Alfred Hitchcock’s classic thriller is brilliantly and hilariously recreated for the stage! | Buy tickets |
