Location: Greenbelt Arts Center

An affectionate look at polyamory and the modern family. Emerson’s dating Sawyer, who’s married to Monty, who’s dating Ray, who’s also dating Avery, who’s married to Emerson. And their friend Keegan lives with them too. This is a show about a family — Venn House, six people who chose one another. Sure, sometimes poly people’s problems are about relationships. Sometimes they’re about jobs, or money, or haunted antiques. And sometimes family is even more complicated than it seems.

Ticket prices: $24 General Admission, $22 Seniors/Military, $12 Student/Youth. Buy tickets here.

This musical is really about a man finding himself and his place in the world far later in life than maybe he had planned to. I really want this production to be a celebration of that journey to self-acceptance and self-actualization — no matter what time of our lives we’re at, we deserve to feel like we belong.

Josh is as brave as a lion, Harriet is as wise as an owl, and Miranda is always as good as gold – or so they think, until they fall down an abandoned mineshaft into a realm beneath the world we know. The trio’s adventure in the fabled Underworld forces them to confront their surface notions, as they delve toward a deeper understanding of courage, wisdom, and goodness. But in a realm where dragons lurk and gnomes are real, can three lost school kids break a spell of ignorance and rescue Sophia, the Underworld’s rightful queen?
