Parker Davis Gray – INCARNATE
March 5th @ 7:30 pm
March 6th @ 2 pm
Streaming March 9-13
"Incarnate is a two-hander that was born out of the thoughts “What does grief do to you, and how far would you be willing to go to get out of it?” A man kidnaps a young woman because he believes that she is his dead father reincarnated, and is trying to figure out what his father’s last moments were like and why his spirit reached out to him.”
Erin Malone Turner – SPACED OUT
March 12th @ 7:30 pm
March 13th @ 2 pm*
Streaming March 16-20
*The Sunday, March 13th matinee performance of SPACED OUT will feature live American Sign Language interpretation for those members of the Deaf/Hard of Hearing community who wish to join us.
SPACED OUT is a science-fiction drama that explores a family in crisis; virtual reality, miscommunication, grief, and the various ways people attempt to escape their troubles—in Ollie’s case, to an alternate universe of sorts. This surrealist play is an adventure of movement, technology, and Sign Language, as well as a bizarre journey through space and time.
Zander Pryor - PARENT, LEGAL GUARDIAN, ANGEL, OTHER
March 19th @ 7:30 pm
March 20th @ 2 pm
Streaming March 23-27
Parent, Legal Guardian, Angel, Other is a delicately woven full-length play exploring the idea of “chosen family” for non-binary, trans teens, and secret-holders, all trying to move forward with inclusion, love and self-forgiveness. A play fluid in time, place and identity, it follows broken people moving through liminal spaces and the love that accompanies them.
Gregg Deal - THE PUNK PAN INDIAN ROMANTIC COMEDY
March 25th @ 7:30 pm
March 26th @ 7:30 pm
March 27th @ 2 pm
Streaming March 30 - April 3
The Punk Pan Indian Romantic Comedy is a music-themed talk and performance piece by Indigenous artist and activist Gregg Deal. This new work focuses on the music that has moved him throughout his life, speaking in stories and antidotes that follow a timeline of struggle, survival, and ultimately healing through the power of music. A work that is upsetting, dramatic and at times pretty funny outlines the way music has affected Deal’s life from his earliest memories to the present and how it has influenced his ideas, his artistic work and his voice.
