student-written and -acted staged readings.  A splendid time is guaranteed
for all-- read on for details:


*Bringing It All Back Home:*

*OddyFest #16*

* *

*OddyFest’s December program explores our concepts of “home”*

*with an epic story of a wandering Jewish immigrant*

*and readings of short plays from high school students.*



*“The Adventures of Fleische Michecha of Rumilshtenikisigov”*

*by Matt Greenfield*

* *

A wandering historical epic in the style of screenwriter Eric Roth (“Forrest
Gump,” “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”), this play investigates a
“quiet man” who finds himself caught up in some of the major wars of the
early 20th century, eventually winding up in the U.S. in the Roaring ‘20s.



*Readings from Gilmour Academy’s “P-Unit”*

* *

Each night of the December program will feature four different one-acts
written and read by high school juniors and seniors with a wide range of
“home” settings: from a cockpit to a hospital to a bus stop

to a student council election as allegory for the recession.



*Pre-show: the acoustic stylings of Patrick Fleming*



*NOW ON THE ODD **FRIDAYS**!*

*December 4 / December 18*
