Sidesplitting and sobering in equal measure, this is the most provocative musical in years.- LA Times
Synopsis
What’s the outcome when The American Dream of success, celebrity, and free speech becomes warped in a madman’s mind? In this highly thought-provoking musical, musical genius Stephen Sondheim and playwright John Weidman bend time and space to allow the nation’s nine successful and would-be assassins to meet, interact, and inspire each other to try to make their mark in the American history books. Using his signature blend of insightful lyrics and unforgettable music, Sondheim sheds a light on the peculiarly American phenomenon that is the presidential assassin. This disturbing, amusing, and ultimately insightful look at American culture will inspire and terrify you.

Synopsis
Trickery, romance, and revenge set the stage for one of Shakespeare’s late masterpieces, in which sprites, goddesses, monsters, and fools hold court. In this fanciful classic that is often described as the darker twin to A Midsummer Night’s Dream, a deposed noble turned sorcerer uses powerful magic to raise a great storm, shipwrecking the vessel bearing a group of conspirators onto the sorcerer’s mysterious island home. There, attended upon by a daughter, a magical sprite, and a deformed servant, the sorcerer leads their enemies through a mysterious dream as circumstances transform vengeance to reconciliation and forgiveness.

Playwright Tom Jacobson is known for tackling challenging themes, and his latest effort - recounting a scandalous little-know chapter in Southern California history - is among his boldest . . . bringing [his] central themes of role-playing, self-deception, and moral responsibility to a shattering conclusion.- Back Stage West
Synopsis
Based on the true story of two actors who hired themselves out to the Long Beach Police Department in 1914 to entrap “social vagrants” in public restrooms, this highly theatrical tour-de-force brings to life a little known episode in Long Beach history and the history of LGBTQ rights. As these two actors become absorbed within their play-within-a-play, they explore sexual identity, institutional corruption, self-deception, and the mysteries of the craft of the theatre. This timely look at another time warns of the dangers of a government infringing on the private right to love.

Synopsis
Set on a Friday night in an alternate suburban reality, the writer of Almost, Maine, John Cariani, brings us an evening of nine bittersweet romantic comedies. Simultaneously hilarious and heart-wrenching, these vignettes provide the audience with the full spectrum of being in love, exploring the joy and the pain surrounding relationships ranging from first meetings to long-term marriages. It seems that “happily ever after” may not be in the cards for all relationships, but brief successes may just make the effort worthwhile. Full of imperfect lovers and dreamers, LOVE/SICK is an unromantic comedy for the romantic in everyone.

Imagine a pairing . . . between Tennessee Williams and Lorraine Hansberry, a memory play about a black family, a glass menagerie in the sun . . . CRUMBS FROM THE TABLE OF JOY [is] a small window into the past, and this almost voyeuristic glimpse is worth attention.- The New York Post
Synopsis
From the fertile mind of Lynn Nottage who brought us the popular By the Way, Meet Vera Stark, comes this timeless tale of a family’s struggles in 1950s America. The Crump family, having recently lost their mother, moves from Florida to Brooklyn in search of a better life. As they struggle to rebuild, they are faced with religious division, racism, and the stresses that come from political, sexual, and social differences. A cross between The Glass Menagerie and A Raisin in the Sun, this insightful and poignant drama will surely speak to anyone where family love has gotten in the way of happiness.
