Two cops. Three crooks. Eight doors. Go. In a cheap motel room, an embezzling mayor is supposed to meet with his female accountant, while in the room next-door, two undercover cops wait to catch the meeting on videotape. But there's some confusion as to who's in which room, who's being videotaped, who's taken the money, who's hired a hit man, and why the accountant keeps taking off her clothes.

Manipulation is the name of the game in Gina Gionfriddo’s character-driven Becky Shaw. Whether they’re conscious of it or not, every character manipulates to get what they want (usually what they want is the dependence of another person). When the sensitive Andrew sets up his strange co-worker Becky on a date with the caustic Max, things seem to start well. But the evening quickly goes horribly wrong and the ensuing emotional tidal wave forces passions and secrets to collide.

Crafted with a level of ambiguity, Becky Shaw will invariably provoke lively audience responses and conversations about blame, manipulation, and who owes what to who.

Directed by Ron Harman

Auditions: March 30 & 31 @ 6pm

Show Dates: May 9, 10, 11, 16, 17, 18, 23, 24, 25

12 Angry Jurors is a play that contemplates the huge responsibility of 12 ordinary people as they consider the guilt or innocence of a young man accused of murder.  The 12 jurors bring their own histories, prejudices, and biases to the jury room as they work through this life-or-death decision.  In the year of George Floyd and countless others, this play works through the issues at hand in a very human way.  It was originally written for men only (12 Angry Men), in a time before women could not serve jury duty.

However, there have been countless productions where the cast has been entirely cast gender neutral.  That is to say, any person any gender may be cast in any role within the play.
