Synopsis: | With original and classical music, dance and striking stage design, Oh, Those Beautiful Weimar Girls will recreate Anita Berber's life in a series of cabaret-styled performances, including much of her "repertoire of the damned."

Synopsis: | Based on Isaac Bashevis Singer's short story "The Unseen," Mark Altman brings the devil, demons and infidelity center stage in Sin, a new comedy that pits a happily married couple against the devil himself. On Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish year, the devil and his demons descend on the tiny town of Frampol. Satan has chosen this most solemn of occasions to test the faith of a happily married couple and in the process ruins their lives. It's a devilish look at two love triangles, one human and one heavenly. | |||||
