Presented by Two Bees Productions

Running Oct 12-22

The Anger in Ernest and Ernestine is an exploration of anger in a long-term relationship through comedy. Earnest and Earnestine are recently married and move into their new home.

The Josephine Knot

Presented by The Hagstone Collective

Running November 9-19

Baba has died, and now Samantha and her father must navigate their complex feelings around the death of the family matriarch. Samantha drifts through thoughts, memories, and her grandmother’s wake, grounded by dextrous performances from two actors who must shift seamlessly through time, space, and eleven different characters.

 

A Brontë Without Genius

Presented by Planter Box Theatre

Running Jan 12-21

Meet Lucy, a woman whose life is not in order. On the evening she fails to defend her master’s thesis, she is visited by the very woman it was about: Anne Brontë. A Brontë Without Genius follows the story of two women in their late twenties grappling with what it means to be successful, what it means to fail, and what it means to be forgotten.

 

I Have No Idea

Presented by In The Headlights

Running Mar 14-24

I Have No Idea is a hilarious and poignant look at adult ADHD through the eyes of people who have it. Using laughter and songs, we celebrate the stories and illuminate the struggles of four neurodivergent people navigating their way through society and the mental health system. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll think.

 

Oblong and Oboe: Stirring the Pot

Presented by Oblong and Oboe

Running May 9-19

Oblong and Oboe are royals who've been raised to really, really love tradition. But, unbeknownst to these red-nosed rule-followers, the Rabble is getting rowdy and stirring up the masses. You are invited to join the revolution in this highly interactive physical comedy that puts an innovative twist on a classic comedy form.

 

But Wait! There's More!

Presented by RedRum Theatre

Running April 18-28

Part Dracula, part Mr. Bean, part Journey to the Center of the Earth.

Bat Brains is a vampire clown play, a surreal mime show, a something. It follows a vampire, named Scud, who never leaves the house. But when a surprise visitor appears at his door, Scud is launched onto a madcap journey into the depths of his home, his mind and beyond.
