Pariah, or the Outcast, by August Strindberg
Mr. X and Mr. Y are in a farmhouse with a storm raging outside, but it hardly compares to the storm brewing inside. While both men have a criminal past, the audience is left to ponder which man is more evil. A battle of wits ensues, or is it just head games? Or is it both? And who wins?
No Such Thing, by Douglas Hill
Steven has written an impressive essay that Alan wants to see published. The only problem is, it would out Steven as gay, something that would destroy his career and livelihood. In a conversation that grows more heated by the minute the two men clash on what is right and what is fair.

Jeff and Hunter, two struggling writers, hear about a new musical theatre festival. However, the deadline for submissions is a mere three weeks away. With nothing to lose, the pair decides to try to create something new with the help of their friends Susan, Heidi and Larry on the eighty-eights. With the cast in place, Jeff and Hunter begin a conversation about what to write about. Eventually, Jeff suggests they write about what to write about. They make a pact to write up until the festival's deadline and dream about the show changing their lives. [title of show] -- taken from the space on the festival's application form which asks for the "[title of show]" -- follows Hunter and Jeff and their friends on their journey through the gauntlet of creative self-expression. In the span of 90 minutes they write and perform their show at the festival and learn lessons about themselves as people, friends and artists. | Purchase tickets |

Written and Directed by Chris Byrne
Dec 1 - Dec 17
If you are a hopeless romantic who loves to curl up and bask in the glow of holiday rom-com movies, you won’t want to miss Christmas in Christmasville, a Christmas Show about Christmas Movies. This vaguely mid-western small town has it all: a disillusioned widow, a generically handsome barista, an overworked lawyer, her chronically single sister, a big-city cookie mogul, a country singer, C-list actors, a holiday festival, Christmas songs, and of course a beloved old man with a white beard. This original musical comedy is sure to delight people who are so filled with holiday spirit that they start listening to Christmas music in September as well as the people who like to make fun of them. | Purchase tickets |
