The six women, which include his much-loved, deceased first wife, charming daughter, opinionated analyst, current adulterous wife, boisterous and bossy sister, and prospective third wife, keep Jake spinning between reality and flashbacks.

The Pillowman

With echoes of Stoppard, Kafka, and the Brothers Grimm, this play centers on a writer in an unnamed totalitarian state who is being interrogated about the gruesome content of his short stories and their similarities to a series of child murders. The result is an urgent, darkly comical work of theatrical bravura and an unflinching examination of the very nature and purpose of art. (Suggested for mature audiences only.)

Lie, Cheat, & Genuflect

The Buckle brothers are in big trouble. Tom's infallible eye for slow horses has drained away all of Billy's savings, and he has borrowed from loan shark Pizza Face Petrillo, who now wants his money back or else! There is plenty of money in Grandfather Buckle's will, but these two black sheep are pretty sure they'll never see any of that. What else to do but dress Billy up as a nun and have him pose as their cousin who is to inherit the entire fortune? Throw in a stuffy lawyer, a hard-drinking housekeeper and trio of beautiful women, and you have the recipe for a laugh-packed farce.

Accomplice

This truly unique thriller begins as a straightforward English thriller in a country house. A sex-starved wife and her lover plan to murder her stuffy husband. The husband is murdered on stage but reappears, as this is actually a dress rehearsal for an out-of-town try out, and the murder victim is the playwright and director. However, he is planning on murdering his wife so that his own affair can continue. A surprise character reveals that something entirely different is actually going on, involving retaliation and suicide. (Suggested for mature audiences only.)
