Aesop, now just a shadow of his former self takes refuge from a storm in an old abandoned theatre. There he encounters George "the theatre echo and his fourteen echoes." Aesop and George debate the worth of stories used to teach as opposed to stories with only entertainment value. Using three of Aesop's lesser known fables (no cute animal stories!) the play has Aesop and his shadows present his stories fairly simply and then George present them again but with theatrical panache. A play with music; music coposed by Dan Cavanagh.

Synopsis:
Young people want to connect with one another in every era, but in the wake of tragedies like 9/11, that impulse is especially strong. Taking place in 1963 and 2001, this powerful drama shows how youth deal with the aftermath of terror: from making chocolate truffles, to painting murals, to exploring other religions. Their solutions may seem naïve, but their hope makes everything possible.

Synopsis:
The story is really a question of belief. Does one believe in the tale of a galloping Hessian who rides through the woods ever searching for his lost head? Will the world end when a comet streaks the sky or a meteor falls to Earth? And what is it about the town of Sleepy Hollow that its residents are "given to all sorts of marvelous beliefs, the people are subject to trances and frequently see strange sights and hear music . . . voices in the air." Come visit this adaptation of Washington Irving's novel and meet again with Ichabod Crane, his nemesis Brom Bones and the lovely coquette they both court: Katrina Van Tassel. Let the play take you through twists and turns of ghostly stories, autumn mischief and the infamous ride of the headless horseman. Then decide for yourself - who and what do you believe?

A cleverly compressed version of Shakespeare's classic comedy, this adaptation preserves the original poetry while simplifying the language and adding practical stage directions. The story is framed by the Dreamer, a modern student frustrated in her attempts to memorize (and make sense of) aMidsummer monologue. As she begins to nod off, the Dreamer is visited by Puck, an impish fairy who sweeps the sleeping girl into the play itself -- a world of mischief, magic, and love.

Synopsis:
Mrs. Quince, a member of the "William Shakespeare Wrote William Shakespeare Society" receives a copy of a play in the mail that could possibly be one of Shakespeare's earliest works. Thinking this could be the break-through that she, her society and her school's theatre department needs, she embraces the play and decides to produce it. When all that can go wrong (costumes delayed, set waterlogged and unusable, a cast of questionable loyalty and talent) does go wrong, it is decided the "show must go on" and indeed it does and we are treated to the hilarious results.

Aliesha, a disgruntled student, is trying to carry a huge book of Shakespeare's plays, but it's too heavy for her. So she tears some pages out and throws them in a trash can. The characters on those pages materialize, crawl out of the trash can and raise havoc on the school campus. It's funny for the audience but frightening for Aliesha. "This is definitely a play that could get young people interested in Shakespeare and to introduce them to some of his interesting characters." BYU Book and Play Review
