Synopsis: | This show is part of the Dream Up Festival. This is the official blurb: Keep Your Baggage is a provocative new play that asks the question "In New York, do we change and grow through our relationships or do we merely become magnified versions of ourselves, whether despicable or wonderful?" Told in seven scenes taking place over seven years each one advancing forward in time beyond the next, we are shown the devolution of both a platonic friendship between two male best friends and several of their intimate relationships. Loaded with explosive dialogue, the show fearlessly depicts the new 21st century sex-laws and how relationships can be compromised by the digital age in which we ask too many questions, but don't have enough answers. | |||||

Synopsis: | Set in fictional Wauketawnee Lake, Illinois against the backdrop of recession in the heartland, Squealer follows an ambitious pork farmer with a roving eye who moves in with a widowed single mother and her teenaged daughter. When he can't get what he wants, things get bloody. A full-on taste of America's poverty-soaked obsession with consumerism and our unquenchable thirst for more, whether it's meat, or love, or both. | |||||
