Banshee
by Adam Richter
In 18th-century Ireland, farmer Nancy Donough dreams of a life beyond the fields. However, an ancient, supernatural call won’t let her go. As visions of what’s to come grow darker, Nancy must face a fate that has echoed through generations before her.
Romeo & Juliet Class of ’97
by Kimberly Patterson
Four hundred years after Shakespeare’s first draft, love looks a little different, but the stakes are just as high. Juliet, a teenager from a high-profile, socially conscious family, wants to fall in love on her own terms. When she meets Romeo, she’ll have to navigate family, fame, and the choices that come with growing up in public.
Just What The Doctor Ordered
by Judd Lear Silverman
A dying mother’s last wish sends her son’s love life into chaos in this Molière-meets-Orton farce. She insists he marry to inherit the family fortune — but since gay marriage is legal, why not marry a gay doctor? Cue the counter-plots, mistaken identities, and escalating absurdity.
