Spirits to Enforce

A group of telefundraisers attempt to raise money for an upcoming production of Shakespeare’s The Tempest, to be performed by local superhero team “The Fathom Town Enforcers.”

Things aren’t looking good at the phone bank. They haven’t raised a dime, rehearsals are a disaster, and they haven’t sold a single ticket. How far will they go to pull off this seemingly doomed-for-sure production? Why do they even want to?

And what do Shakespeare, superheroes, and fundraising have to do with each other? Well, you’ve obviously never seen a Mickle Maher play. Better get on that.

Spirits to Enforce creates a cacophonous symphony of language. A riotously funny, tender tale of memory, loss, and finding the way back home.Read more

Assassins

The Garden Theatre

Assassins

Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim; Book by John Weidman

A multiple Tony Award-winning theatrical tour-de-force, Assassins combines Sondheim's signature blend of intelligently stunning lyrics and beautiful music with a panoramic story of our nation's culture of celebrity and the violent means some will use to obtain it, embodied by America's four successful and five would-be presidential assassins. Bold, original, disturbing and alarmingly funny, Assassins is perhaps the most controversial musical ever written.

Assassins lays bare the lives of nine individuals who assassinated or tried to assassinate the President of the United States, in a one-act historical musical that explores the dark side of the American experience. From John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald, writers, Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman, bend the rules of time and space, taking us on a nightmarish roller coaster ride in which assassins and would-be assassins from different historical periods meet, interact and inspire each other to harrowing acts in the name of the American Dream.Read more

Cuánto vale una heladera/Mesa de Saldos/Verona

An evening of three short plays by well-know Argentine playwrights Claudia Piñeiro & Claudio Regis!

Cuánto vale una heladera (How much is a refrigerator worth): Written by Claudia Piñeiro, one of the most widely read authors in Argentina and worldwide, the work subtly addresses, through humor, the theme of reclaiming identity in a modern, globalized, and bureaucratic world.

Mesa de Saldos (Sale Table) by Claudio Regis: A man searches for books written and dedicated by hand by his deceased grandfather, whom he deeply admires. Claudio Regis easily captures our interest in participating in an intriguing everyday scene.

Verona by Claudia Piñeiro is a warm and amusing work about the complexity of love and sisterhood.Read more

Race

Dirt Dogs Theatre Co.

Race

WRITTEN BY DAVID MAMET; DIRECTED BY RON JONES

When a prominent white businessman is charged with the sexual assault of a black woman, he employs a multicultural law firm to defend him. As the legal team examines the case, the evidence raises questions about the accused's firsthand account. How far will they go in defense of their client and the pursuit of actual justice? Race examines how truth is not always the goal when it comes to the legal system and the biases within. In fact, truth can be disruptive.Read more
