A woman searching for her missing twin brother is haunted by their history of confict.
Starring Lisa Stran as Hannah and Jeff Broitman as Adam.
Written by Amy Crider and directed by Amber Mandley.
Her family isolates together during the pandemic. She often thinks, “Didn’t I already serve this sentence when they were babies?” Wait. Did she manifest a global health crisis to keep them from leaving?
We enter the bunker to find that things have gotten out of hand. Escape is going to take choreographed distance and closeness, the fanciest of footwork, and words felt but not understood.
How did they survive? Through K-Pop? Surely, not. And yet.
This is not a show about motherhood, or the pandemic, or isolation, or letting go, or finding a common language in pop culture … It's the opposite of all of that.
Written by Kristin Garrison
Directed by Jayita Bhattacharya
Performed by Kristin Garrison, Lola Zimmerman, Penny Lou Zimmerman

It is the 1920s in Chicago, and The District of Lake Michigan is thriving. Led by Cap and Ma Streeter, the lakefront plot of land that houses The District is occupied by a ragtag group of Chicagoans living outside the law. They have been allowed to live there, pretty much undisturbed, for decades, but now they are in the way of millionaire Potter Palmer's master plan to expand his holdings onto Lake Shore Drive. Not one to do his own dirty work, Palmer sends his puppets (The Judge, Sargeant O'Malley, and N.A. Warpbank) to remove Streeter and his followers from the land once and for all in this DaDa adaptation of a Chicago legend. "Streeterville won't never have a chamber of commerce until it has a cabaret. This is a frontier town and its got to go through its red-blooded youth. A church and a WCTU branch never growed a town yet. Yuh gotta start with entertainment." -- Captain George Wellington Streeter
Playwright: Leah Roth Barsanti
Director: Kristin L. Schoenback
Design: Rachael Nuckles
Performers: Kylie Anderson, Kelsey Busboom, Vivian Delgadillo, Keenan Odenkirk, Ryan Tang
A series of stories and hypothesis and enticements, all about being human in a body. It'll be strange, also rapturous, and definitely a little scary. Bring your own body into this one and we'll be an organism together. And don't worry: there's candy.
