Bruise and Thorn are Nuyorican, queer, and tired af of their jobs at a busted up laundromat in Jamaica, Queens. But not for long: Bruise is saving up to become a chef (like on Chopped!), and Thorn spits bars on street corners, one America’s Got Talent audition away from becoming the Boricua Nikki Minaj. When the laundromat’s basement turns out to be an illegal cockfighting ring, the cousins can’t tell if this is an opportunity to cash out and become their most fabulous selves—or a trap to keep them locked into what everyone expects them to be.

Promapocalypse!
Ask any high school senior and they’ll tell you that prom night is the most important night of their lives. But thanks to Julian – an evil alien warlord from Rangor posing as an ordinary high school student – prom night has turned into an absolute disaster. And it’s all thanks to Becca. An innocent, college-bound kid, who made the colossally bad decision to ask Julian to the prom. Now Julian has the senior class right where he wants them – all in one spot so he and his henchmen can bring them to his planet to be his servants for the rest of their lives.
It’s a fight to the finish as Becca and her friends try to save themselves from a horrible existence and – more importantly – save the prom!
Vampire Valedictorian
It’s vampires versus teenagers in this epic battle to stop graduation from turning into a bloodbath. Caitlin’s really, really smart and is class valedictorian.

Can Carly and her friends stop Caitlin before graduation night? Or will they be doomed to live for eternity without a high school diploma?
Material Girls

As Tiffany and her material girl – and guy – friends get ready to graduate high school, they start to realize there might be more to life than finding the perfect lip gloss and the most glittery eye shadow, but is it too late to make a change? Penny doesn’t think so. With her help, Tiffany and her fashion victim friends, might just discover they have other options to succeed in the material world.
Thirst
Thirst is set in the kitchen as Eugene O’Neill’s classic Long Day’s Journey Into Night simultaneously takes place in the living room.

This is a LITTLE WOMEN like none you have ever seen or heard before.
