2008-2009 Season
As You Like It August 14 - September 14, 2008
by William Shakespeare
Adapted by Ricky J. Martinez
One of the Bard's most accessible romantic comedies! Follow Shakespeare's gorgeous heroine into
a forest of possibilities where the nature of true love vs. romantic love are put to the test amidst
misunderstandings, gender confusions, and mistaken identities.
"All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players, they have their exits and their
entrances; and one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages..."
- Excerpt from AS YOU LIKE IT
Main Season
The Rant September 25 - October 26, 2008
by Andrew Case World Premiere
One crime, four points of view; the truth itself is a kind of bias. A New York City Police
Officer shoots and kills an unarmed sixteen year-old boy. The investigator assigned to the case must
wade through prejudice, deceit, and a volley of anonymous threats to find out where culpability
really lies.
Case's plays have been presented at Steppenwolf, Nuyorican Poets Café, and the Lincoln Center and he
is a member of the New American Writers Group at Primary Stages and a former Manhattan Theatre Club
playwriting fellow.
The Gates of Choice November 13 - December 14, 2008
by Michelle Rosenfarb World Premiere
In the Israeli Ultra Orthodox quarter of Mea Shearim, Mehira, a Hasidic young woman facing an
arranged marriage, finds refuge and answers in a taboo relationship with an ex-Haredi soldier.
Fueled by her curious nature and longing for identity, she delves further to find "the truth" forming
the foundation of her religion, her community, and her family.
Rosenfarb is recipient of the Emerging Artist Foster Fellowship granted by the Broward County
Cultural Arts Foundation and winner of the 17th Annual Florida Playwright Competition.
Kissing January 15 - February 15, 2009
by Robert Caisley World Premiere
Things heat up in this quirky romantic comedy and lives spin out-of-control during an office
softball game. When an illicit kiss between Sam and Tess threatens to break up his long-time
marriage to Helen, Tess breaks off the relationship, and makes an attempt at a new life with
Andrew. A play about the biology and sociology of kissing and the choices we make after passion
and guilt intervene. Perfect for Valentines!
Caisley is Associate Professor of Theatre & Film, and Head of the Dramatic Writing Program at the
University of Idaho. His plays have played at Walnut Street Theatre, Mill Mountain Theatre,
Sundance Writer's Lab, and Actor's Theatre of Louisville.
Glass Menagerie February 26 - March 29, 2009
by Tennessee Williams
Tennessee Williams' most lyrical and powerful memory play about the Wingfield family, THE
GLASS MENAGERIE is one of the great masterpieces of American drama and winner of the New
York Drama Critics Circle Award for best play. Tom is torn between family obligation and his
deep desire to escape his domineering mother, Amanda, and his frail sister, Laura.
"When you look at a piece of delicately spun glass you think of two things: how
beautiful it is and how easily it can be broken."
- Tennessee Williams
Mauritius April 16 - May 17, 2009
by Theresa Rebeck South Florida Premiere
This sharp, funny, and engaging work straight from its Broadway premiere by Pulitzer Prize
nominated Theresa Rebeck keeps us at the edge of our seats hinged on each plot twist. Jackie and
Mary are half-sisters whose mother's death leaves them in possession of a rare stamp collection,
while battling over who owns the stamps three dealers have designs of their own. Who is friend
and who is foe?
"A gifted writer with an expansive mind, willing to explore old terrain to find new
paths."
- The New York Times
