CREDITORS is the suspenseful tale of two men who meet at a seaside resort in Sweden—a sculptor and a mysterious stranger—only to discover that they have something unexpected in common; a woman. In Wright’s adaptation of Strindberg’s forgotten masterwork, all three characters engage in a deadly game of wits, opening old wounds and inflicting fresh ones. Written in 1888, the play still bears its ferocious sting, and is reminiscent of the most contemporary erotic thrillers with its blend of toxic desire and wicked intent.
Length: 75-90 Minutes
A full-length show that runs approximately between 75-90 minutes.
Pen Pals
PEN PALS is an epistolary play that tells the story of the extraordinary friendship between two ordinary women. Bernie, from Newark, New Jersey, starts writing to Mags, who lives in Sheffield, England, when she’s 14-years-old and their correspondence continues for the next five decades.
The play is essentially an extended flashback where the women read the letters they sent to each other over the past 50 years. Without the aid of costumes, make-up, or wigs, the actors age before the audience’s eyes as they tell the stories of their lives.
The Hummingbirds
Been unemployed too long? Welcome to a very special office of the Unemployment Bureau! Here you will work with two very special unemployment counselors to place you into a job today.

The play also concerns domestic terrorism, strippers, and weaponized hummingbirds.
Coal Country
COAL COUNTRY tells the story of 2010’s Upper Big Branch Mine Disaster—the worst American mining disaster in over 50 years—a “preventable accident” that killed 29 men and devastated an entire community. Drawn from interviews with survivors and surviving family members of the coal miners who were killed, and with music by legendary songwriter Steve Earle, COAL COUNTRY reveals West Virginia’s radical history of union mining and the courage, specificity and resilience of an often misunderstood community—and the devastating costs of unfettered corporate greed.
cityscrape
Provocative, hilarious, and unexpectedly tender, CITYSCRAPE is a new play that dares to ask: does sharing a vibrator collection make you officially co-dependent? Roommates Kitt and Kat are willing to do anything for the sake of their art… even if it means destroying the friendship that keeps them afloat. A love letter to surviving your first year in New York, CITYSCRAPE examines what it means to truly be “seen” by another person—and what happens if the version of ourselves that’s reflected back is an egocentric monster.
Uncommon Sense
UNCOMMON SENSE weaves together the stories of four characters living on the autism spectrum—Dan, Jess, Moose, and Lali—as well as their families and friends. The play reveals our desire to connect, our universal challenges with “difference,” and the lengths to which we go for the people we love.
Detained
Winner of four NAACP Theatre Awards, DETAINED offers a heart-wrenching and in-depth look at the human lives behind U.S. immigration policies and a concise history of the legislation that got us here. Based on interviews with longtime U.S. residents held in immigration detention, their family members, advocates, attorneys and representatives of ICE, DETAINED explores how families fight to stay together as increasingly cruel U.S. immigration legislation keeps them apart, delivering a poignant, timely reflection on human dignity in the face of dehumanizing systems. Perfect for producers seeking socially relevant plays, DETAINED sparks conversation about the intersection of immigration, race, and the flawed U.S. justice system.

In this uproarious, clever, engaging comedy, narrator Jane Austen and a madcap cast of ladies and gents deliver condensed versions of all six of Austen’s beloved novels at a lightning pace, including modern day zingers about Austen’s fame, fandom, movies and TV series. Fans will be delighted, although no knowledge of Austen’s work is required to enjoy the play, which basks in the glory of her major works, while also poking fun at their pitfalls—a hilarious and loving homage to the celebrated English writer whose insightful wit and romantic stories are treasured across the world today.
