Synopsis: Bill of (W)Rights is a political funhouse growing from a moment in history when self-censorship abounds and the populace is increasingly governed by fear. Nine playwrights offer ten plays, each based on one of the U.S. Constitution's first ten amendments. These pieces focus less on government interference and more on the interpersonal, from a father and daughter facing a criminal trial to the silence of an unfaithful husband "pleading the fifth" to his family -- not to mention a company of actors yelling "Fire!" in a crowded theater. The creation of the script, encompassing a diversity of voices and opinions, was itself an act of democracy, demonstrating that theatre can be a voice of revelation and revolution.

Synopsis: This award-winning play tells the story of a Chinatown girl who dreams about making it big in Hollywood. It takes its inspiration from the remarkable life of Anny May Wong, America's first and brightest Chinese American movie star, presenting her loves, her struggles, her humiliations, and her triumphs. It spans her humble beginnings and the rigors of training in the studio system of L.B. Mayer and Samuel Goldwyn, to the heights of success in such classic films as Shanghai Express with Marlene Dietrich. A loving and unflinching homage to a woman ahead of her time

Synopsis: A tale of mysterious magical rain boots that will grant the wearer's greatest wish. Two meddlesome fairies wonder whether human beings can really know what brings happiness, so they slip the magical goloshes onto the feet of four unsuspecting children who think they know what they want. This modern-day version of the original Goloshes of Fortune is infused with street dancing, slang, Danish dialogue (which is taught to the audience), and, of course, a pair of yellow Wellingtons.
