Absurd

ROOTS: An Evening of World Premiere Shorts is four wonderfully strange world premiere short plays that usher audiences through the complexity of the human condition.

Are you on your phone right now? My god. I hope you're not driving. (Crash). Not my fault! Tie it off and see the show!

Tobin Mitnick dives into the grotesque and hilarious world of online grifters and con men with sketch and stand-up in order to show us that the game may have changed, but the players are all still here. But the show grows darker as Mitnick answers a lingering question: can you con yourself?

Are you looking for a place where everybody knows your name? A safe place of like-minded individuals? A support group, for the likes of you? A Serial Killer? Then the Red Bar is for you. Remember, what happens at the Red Bar stays at the Red Bar. Don’t talk about the Red Bar.

Comedy Hoe is a one woman show written and performed by comedian Jil Chrissie featuring comic Angelica Mackey. This bold performance weaves fictional storytelling with standup comedy and comedic spoken word to address the adversity and hyper-sexualization that women face in America daily.

"A comedy as dark as this town's secrets..." The forced civility at a small town Mayor's debate shows cracks as the shallow and petty candidates dig deep on property taxes, parking meters and cupcake flavors, cracks that begin to reveal a secret horror that has paralyzed the town.

In a comedy of grief, these Accountants of Death work tirelessly to record the death toll. The occupational hazards wear on these two clowns as they learn the meaning of life and death. An absurd and physical jaunt brimming with existential phone calls, impaired dancing and the love of a goldfish.

This timeless satire features improvised feats of physical and existential comedy that defy explanation and provoke unfettered, eery glee. Come see what's behind the curtain...

A magical realist dramedy about two frustrated actors who accidentally kidnap their favorite movie star... or is it really her? What is identity in a world where myths are stronger than we dare think? "The siren call is driving me to my end, like a ship to wreck on rocks".
