	FEB 8, 9, 10, THURS-SAT AT 8 PM: 

	_SEXLESS IN SEATTLE,__ 
_a ten-minute comedy by Jonathan Wlodarski, is a lonely, lovelorn romp
in a Seattle apartment. Directed by Clyde Simon.

	_MURDER AT THE PALACE_ _THEATER__, 
_a two-act play by Robert M.K. Daniels, a comic, vaudeville murder
mystery, is a satiric look at what people will go through for their
art, and the cost of being famous. There are two sides to every coin;
good and bad, light and dark, art and fame. And sometimes the price of
fame can be murder. Directed by David Munnell.

	 

	FEB 15, 16, 17, THURS-SAT AT 8 PM: 

	_RENDEZVOUS POINT__,
_ by Adam Rounick, is a ten-minute comedy about three professional
criminals carrying out an elaborate heist. The only hitch is that two
of them don’t know the plan. Through playful back-and-forth banter
and tangential diatribes, the clueless crooks race against the clock
to salvage the scheme. Directed by Scott Zolkowski.

	_CONTRADICTIONARY LIES_, by Katie Wallace, is a part dark comedy,
part docudrama two-act play, and follows failed rocker Jimbo and his
estranged wife Kelly as they sort through the remnants of their failed
marriage. As nostalgia kicks up old emotions, Jimbo is visited by his
guardian angel in the form of his idol, Kurt Cobain. Directed by Beau
Reinker.
