It’s Christmas Eve and everyone’s looking for a miracle. Two bumbling fugitives want help proving their innocence, the deputy DA wants a date, and Fred wants a vacation away from his overbearing mother. Private investigator Cactus O’Riley just wants a quiet night and a career change. What she gets instead is a merry, manic mystery that turns her life upside down, but might just prove the biggest miracle yet.

Summary: The night after their grandfather’s funeral, three cousins engage in a verbal (and sometimes physical) battle. In one corner is Daphna, a “Real Jew” who is volatile, self assured, and unbending. In the other is her equally stubborn cousin Liam, a secular and entitled young man, who has his shiksa girlfriend, Melody, in tow. Stuck in the middle is Liam’s brother Jonah, who tries to stay out of the fray. When Liam stakes claim to their grandfather’s Chai necklace, a vicious and hilarious brawl over family, faith, and legacy ensues.

Auditions will consist of readings from the script, plus possible improv skills.

Lenny is a great guy: a good teacher, an excellent father, and a loving husband. So when his wife leaves him for a smooth-talking lothario who builds Walmarts, his life is shattered. While he consoles himself with watching his favorite movie, ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’, his best friend Mick takes matters into his own hands. Now Lenny must decide what he will stand up for and who he will stand up to. How far is too far to get back to happily-ever-after?

Truman Capote wrote a book that traded on the confidences of his socialite friends. They spurned him and it left him bereft and prone to self-destructive behavior. In this production we see Tru over 2 days, in which he talks about his life and how he hopes to ingratiate himself once again with high society.
