Synopsis: | After their mother's disappearance, Marchen and her nine sisters grow up in a swamp with only a trunk full of old stories to teach them about the world. But under the influence of a cryptic witch, Jenny Greenteeth, Marchen begins to wonder if her destiny lies beyond her books and her isolated life with her siblings. Is she willing to leave her life behind -- even betray her sisters -- to find her own freedom? When the littlest sister disappears, it's up to Marchen to uncover the truth. Inspired by classic fairy tales and folklore, 10 Virgins deftly explores what it means to find our way in the world and what consequences come from the paths we choose. | |||||

Notes: | In 1995, a group of writers, directors and actors gathered on Manhattan's Lower East Side for what was supposed to be a one-time-only event: write, direct, produce and perform new plays with the span of 24 hours. More than a decade and just over 300 plays later, The 24 Hour Plays have been produced on Broadway, in London, Los Angeles, Chicago and across the globe. | |||||
| Samantha wants to be with her girlfriend Irina, but the closest she can possibly get to Russia without leaving the United States is Nome, Alaska. Is it close enough? Or is there too much space between them? Sam reaches out to Irina while Sam's new next-door neighbor writes her an important letter. | |||||
