Notes: | There are "real" people as well as metaphysical re-creations of those people. There is also a classical Greek chorus that can be broken into many characters or pulled off by a few. The chorus can overlap with the other characters. The minimum amount of cast members would be about sixteen, but even that is flexible. There is no maximum. | |||||
Synopsis: | Two young teens have to learn to stand up for themselves in different ways. Young Homer and Helen step through a magic portal which transports them to the clouds. While up there they meet Strepsiades, Socrates, some Furies, Sirens, and just plain "weirdoes." Eventually they figure out why they are there and what they should do, maybe& Too bad Strepsiades can't do the same. He's been stuck there for eons. This is a madcap shout out to Aristophanes that touches on modern themes for youth. | |||||

Notes: | - | |||||
Synopsis: | A young buck trying to navigate his way to stardom gets a lot of advice. Everyone thinks they're right, but no one has the answer. This play breaks conventional structure as hit pokes satirical fun at the life of a budding young actor that is searching for better lighting. He ends up in a bad Shakespearean political commentary, does a strip-tease on a jumbotron, and even talks to some metaphysical light-seekers, that is, between phone calls from mom and apartment searches, of course. | |||||
