CANST THOU HEAREST THEE NOW?

A modern-day take on Romeo and Juliet where two cell line-crossed lovers are kept apart because they come from two separate operating systems (or families): The Applelets and the MontaGoogles.

Can these diehard actors survive this grueling competition? This fun show follows several competitive performances that fall...

DRAMA GEEKS

Nine over-dramatic high school students gather on a bare stage. They've been invited by a cheeky narrator who poses a question that has confused actors for generations: To be or not to be?

FALLEN

Ask any young person to close his eyes and consider factors that might contribute to suicide and chances are he'll ramble off three or four causes.

Fallen, guardian of the bridge,...
