J.M. Synge’s classic In the Shadow of the Glen, directed by Kay Beckett, is a somber, dark meditation on death and the loneliness of the human spirit set in an isolated cottage in Ireland in the early 1900s.
Director Jesse Tidd brings a more light-hearted touch to the modern comedy 11:11 by James Perry, a fun play about time travel, friendship, potatoes, and the butterfly effect.
Emotional Baggage by Lindsay Price takes place entirely without dialogue. Director Casey Parles explores the feelings we carry with us and the things we need to let go of relying solely on the intricacies of movement and gesture.
Nathaniel Hawthorne’s gothic love story Rappaccini’s Daughter has been adapted for the stage by director Dante Mauriello using classic horror devices to depict how deadly it can be when people mistake possession and control for love.
