Pipeline Playwrights Presents
Around the Snake Turn
A new play by Patricia Connelly
Directed by Rikki Howie Lacewell

June 19 – 28, 2026

Location: Joe’s Movement Emporium.

When Baaba’s son is accused of a crime, the local fetish priest curses the extended family—a curse that can only be lifted when a young virgin becomes a trokosi or wife to the gods, in reality, a slave to the priest. With her young daughter at risk, Baaba pits herself against family, religion, and tradition to keep her daughter safe.

Heauxs in Wonderland: A Burlesque Variety Show

A group of high school students hop on board what they think is an ordinary field trip train—until it begins to bend time itself. Each stop launches them into a different era, from prehistoric landscapes to distant futures, where they experience the evolution of life, culture, and creativity firsthand. Guided by art, music, and storytelling, the students confront the beauty and fragility of nature and humanity’s ever-changing relationship with it.
