Synopsis: | Iraq: February, 1991. High-tech weaponry from eight nations hammers Baghdad's smokestacks and high-rises to dust. In one nameless shelter huddle eight cold, tired, angry Iraqis. To keep their sanity, they propose a storytelling contest. The result: Eight war stories, full of war's sadness, horror, and sometimes even laughter. Flowers of War is a "Fantasia on American Themes" - you won't get the characters you see to resemble the Iraqis you have been conditioned to expect! | |||||

Synopsis: | An "art rock" sci-fi thriller set 125 years hence, The New Life is a wild ride of a play where immortality, Italian poetry, terror, and the emergent intelligence of networks interfold DNA-like into the noir classic D.O.A. Complex and multi-layered, the play's flexible casting options mean you can perform it with a cast as small as 8 or large as 22. Likewise, you can make it a tour de force of technical theatre, or perform it simply on a bare platform with human-generated effects | |||||

Synopsis: | Spooky and hilarious things happen when philosophy professor Lee Krebs finds himself in cyberspace with his hero, the philosopher George Berkeley (Berkeley, who lived 1684-1753, wrote that people learn of reality only through their senses). How do people relate to each other in altered reality? Can your mind can be rewired so it's completely different from others? As minds, are we all snowflakes? What is the sound of memory? How does imagination smell? All these questions are asked and answered in Bob Jude Ferrante's surreal and poetic comedy. | |||||
