PAST PRODUCTIONS
Bea Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table
By Joe Tracz

When the women of the group decide they’d rather re-enact the female-driven fantasy adventures of the Golden Girls, tensions mount and genders clash as the players struggle to hold onto their fantasies in the face of mundane reality. March 2015
Chatting with the Tea Party
By Rich Orloff
In this documentary-style play, a New York liberal playwright travels around the country (including Wisconsin!) interviewing leaders of local Tea Party groups, to get to know people whose political beliefs are diametrically opposed to his.
In a journey that’s at times disturbing, humorous, moving, and always thought-provoking, the playwright discovers not only how and if he can affect the people he meets, but also how they may be influencing him.
Everything the interviewees say in the play comes directly from the interviews. Staged reading, September 2014
