In this Pulitzer Prize winning play, three terminal cancer patients dwell in separate cottages on a hospital’s grounds. The play dramatizes their anxieties and their coming to grips with the finality of their condition, a preordained future whose only imponderable is its exact length. The three are attended and visited by family and friends. “There are five stages that person will go through when he faces the fact of his own death; denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. These stages will last for different periods of time, they will replace each other, or exist at times side by side…but the one thing that usually persists through all these stages is hope.”
A contemporary song-cycle musical that ingeniously chronicles the five year life of a marriage, from meeting to break-up... or from break-up to meeting, depending on how you look at it. Written by Jason Robert Brown (Parade, Songs For A New World), The Last Five Years is an intensely personal look at the relationship between a writer and an actress told from both points of view.
Not since Angels in America has a play been so unafraid to acknowledge the power of the spirit. The Last Days of Judas Iscariot takes place in Hope, a small section of Purgatory where litigation determines the fates of its inhabitants. Thanks to a writ signed by God, himself, Judas Iscariot-Jesus's infamous betrayer-is on trial, though he is in a catatonic state in Hell. In a hilarious and well-written dramedy, viewers will find themselves questioning their own opinions on despair, morality, and salvation.
This exciting drama about the Puritan purge of witchcraft in old Salen is both a gripping historical play and a timely parable of our contemporary society. The story focuses upon a farmer, his wife, and a young servant girl who maliciously causes the wife’s arrest for witchcraft. The farmer brings the girl to court to admit the lie – and it is here that the monstrous course of bigotry and deceit is terrifyingly depicted. The farmer, instead of saving his wife, finds himself also accused of witchcraft and ultimately condemned with a host of others.
