A NICE FAMILY CHRISTMAS
BY PHIL OLSON
DIRECTED BY STACEY MARTIN
October 12th - 15th
THE STORY: It’s Christmas Eve, and a young newspaper reporter on the brink of being fired has been assigned a last-chance story about a typical family Christmas – his family’s Christmas. He goes home to his recently widowed mother, his crazy uncle, his eccentric grandmother, and his battling siblings and their neurotic spouses, who provide no shortage of material. One by one, we learn each family member’s secrets, problems, and dysfunctions, and when they learn that he’s writing an article with some very personal family information, the fruitcake hits the fan. The question is, will the magic of Christmas bring this family back together?
READING BETWEEN THE LIES
BY KELLY BARRETT-GIBSON
DIRECTED BY LUKE MCLAUGHLIN
February 22nd - 25th
THE STORY: Reading Between the Lies is a noir farce set in the world of 1940s Broadway. The first read of a new play becomes a crime scene when one of the participants unexpectedly drops dead. In a room filled with old vendettas, jilted lovers, blackmail victims, and one loony former child star, it’s anyone’s guess who the killer is, who the intended victim was, and who, if anyone, will save the day! Hilarity and fast-paced whodunit antics ensue.

Join these fierce females, wild women, and unforgettable eccentrics on a comedic rocket ride of hilarity! A rollicking expedition into the dangerously funny and decidedly off-beat terrain of the U.S. male at his madcap best!
