The School For Super-Heroes Presents Orlando Furioso, The Musical is about a group of students who don’t feel like they fit in at a high school for super-powered teenagers, due to their offbeat powers. Drawing on their combined abilities, the group decides to produce the most ambitious high school musical in history, based on a rollicking 16th-century fantasy epic that puts the King Arthur legends to shame. The result surprises them all and just maybe saves the world! Who could resist a musical that combines super-powers with dashing knights, powerful wizards, and warrior damsels?

Struggling TV soap actress Jessica is offered a role she’s not sure she wants – Hamlet. As she copes with the insane idea (and the occasional threatening text from Sir Patrick Stewart), she encounters a wide-ranging ensemble of challenging characters – including an abusive acting coach, a bratty hacker niece, a cougar mom, a worldwise bartender, a sexist creep professor and a Shakespearean gravedigger – all played by women. Jessica’s journey to find herself in the role is a humorous and insightful exploration of gender, identity, and the challenges of acting.

The tragedy of a good, simple man ( a Brooklyn longshoreman) whose subconscious sexual attraction to the seventeen year old niece that he has raised as a daughter, collides with her attraction to one of his wife’s illegal immigrant cousins whom he has taken into his home out of his own generosity and love of his wife. Extremely moving tragedy with scattered humorous moments displaying both the air of 1950’s Brooklyn and a timeless, universal sense of the human condition. Contains subthemes relevant to current topics of controvery: such as the treatment of illegal aliens and anyone who seems “different” from the norm. Script published by Dramatists Play Service.
