Full Lengths:

Three Exorcisms (cast of 4)

It's 1566 and Nicole Aubrey is possessed by Beelzebub. Or at least, that's the rumor. But when something goes horribly wrong, she has to rely on the help of a very strange nun, an old lady who swears she’s sixteen, and a stable boy with a secret.

The Winter Guard Play (cast of 7)

Winter Guard is NOT Color-guard. Forget the football, forget the pompoms. In Mechanicsfield Pennsylvania, a High School Winter Guard team attempts to choreograph a routine on the topic of Global Warming. A play about catching flags, catching each other, and realizing the grown ups aren't going to save you.

Sick Day (cast of 5)

Two girls traverse the New York City Medical System on one very hot day. You may have seen them, at Urgent Care, at the Eye Doctor, in the Ambulance, squeezed into a single bed in the ER. They were talking loudly, and laughing loudly too. Sick Day tells the story of two dear friends, performing for strangers, themselves and each other, trying to keep reality at bay. 

I Live Here Now (cast of 3)

Meg is locked in a box preparing to die, but then a good man named Tyler finds her. They fall in love, get married, and Meg is a normal wife and woman—and you know what? Some days it feels pretty good. Until one day, she reunites with her sister Cassie and remembers who she is. A play about fear and love, and how hard it can be to tell the two apart. 

Short Plays:

The Donor (cast of 2)

Single mom Suzanne needs an actor for a discreet personal favor. It should be simple. But when she casts Mike, she grossly underestimates the lengths an out-of-work actor will go to to make an impact.
