F SLUR 

By Matthew Scott Montgomery

Directed by Bryan Langlitz

Starring AdrIÁn González and Matthew Scott Montgomery

In a shocking, boundary-pushing role-play session unlike anything ever seen onstage, two men discover what starts as an outrageous, x-rated fantasy might just be the beginning of something unexpectedly real - and maybe even romantic - in this very-modern, deeply funny, and profoundly affecting comedy.

 

WHOSE SLICE IS IT ANYWAY?

By Darian Dauchan

Directed by Cara Greene Epstein

Starring Darian Dauchan and Tom DeTrinis

When two friends start to argue over an insanely delicious slice of pie, a spirited debate becomes more than just a witty conversation about a precious piece of dessert.  

 

BATHSHEBA

By Melissa Jane Osborne

Directed by Alex Alcheh

Starring Josh Bywater and Andria Kozica

Two sort of 'friends' meet in a stranger's apartment for one kind of intimacy and leave with another. Bathesheba explores what it means to be intimate and the challenge of being seen.
