THE PLAYS
Sex
Oct 11-26, 2019
Sex is an infamous play written by and starring the budding starlet Mae West in the 1920s. Proudly feminist in its subtext, the play enjoyed a successful run on Broadway until it was deemed by a grand jury to be such “obscene, indecent, immoral, and impure drama” that it might corrupt “the morals of youth.” West was sentenced to 10 days in jail for obscenity, and traveled there in style – garlanded in roses, wearing silk underwear, and riding in a limousine.
By Mae West, music by Cole Porter, adapted and directed by Edward Jordon.
It’s A Wonderful Life

The beloved holiday film comes to life as a 1940’s radio broadcast in the world premiere of a new adaptation by David Ossman.
Directed by David Ossman and Judith Walcutt.
Red (This show is cast)

A Doll’s House
April 10-25, 2019
This controversial masterpiece about Nora and Torvald Helmer's fragile marriage was a watershed moment in both theatre and feminism. As Christmas Eve approaches and purse strings tighten; the Helmer's discover that the facade of their perfect lives is beginning to crack. Nora has a secret and what begins as an exquisite family drama quickly reveals itself to be a life-or-death thriller with no clear villains or means of escape.
By Henrik Ibsen.
Under the leadership of Deana Duncan, Artistic Director and Dramaturg Tristan A.B. Steel.
A Doll’s House, Part 2
June 12-27, 2019
Fifteen years have passed between a door slam in Ibsen’s classic and a “knock-knock” that begins Part 2. What follows are 90 deft, devastating minutes that connect the past and present and shine a light on how we seem to be going backwards in our thinking about women’s rights, identities, ownership of bodies, and gender roles.
Written by Lucas Hnath.
Under the leadership of Deana Duncan, Artistic Director and Dramaturg, Tristan A.B. Steel.
