Words Left Unsaid

3-7M, 3-7F, Est. Runtime 1:30

Everyone has something to say- whether they do is up to them. In this collection of vignettes and monologues, schoolyard bets make way for bus stop romances. Lloyd and June recap a life of love and loss, while secrets get spilled over dinner at the Sullivan's. And throughout, we get to know more about our two leading ladies- how does the high-spirited Rachel know the meek-minded Pauline in the first place? Join the residents of Empty Valley for a night of wisdom, wonder, and words.

Acting Out

3M, 3F, 2MF, Est. Runtime 1:30

A small theatre company is two days away from putting on its latest production, "Perils of Love", when the director is forced to step out, leaving her exhausted stage manager Faye in charge. But when the actors bring in an "artistic" director from a nearby theater, Faye's world is thrown into chaos as she attempts to get rid of this new director while keeping the show on track. Will Faye have to deal with rioting protesters? Millionaire Hollywood producers? Drunk Shakespeare? Only the audience can decide! Join the cast and crew of "Perils of Love" in a crazy and exciting 'choose your own adventure' farce, resulting in one of four unique endings!

First dates would be better with a do-over. Or two, or three. Charlie will need as many as he can get to win over Nancy, and it seems like the universe has prepared just that. But who keeps eating the quiche?
