Bar Flies

Synopsis:
Bar Flies welcomes you to the bar of your nightmares: if there was a dive in purgatory, this would be it. every sad sack in this place has a story to tell, and each and every one of them is one sip away from spilling their guts. Or cutting their feet off. Or picking up chicks to join the Marines. Or toasting to ghosts. Or burying their next-door neighbor in the backyard. Or exposing their incestuous lesbian love affair with their little sister. Or hand-picking which drunkard to get in a car accident with on the road back home. Bar Flies will be presented in Galapagos's back room among its patrons: noise, smoke, drink, sweat, pickup lines, etc. It will consist of five stories spoken by five actors mixing with music from the band. You will not know the players until they speak, possibly from the bar stool next to you

Teaser Cow

Synopsis:
Pumpkin Pie Show creator Clay McLeod Chapman has teamed up with One Year Lease to create teaser cow, an off-the-wall script that takes characters from the ancient Greek myth of the Minotaur and drops them into the world of Fast Food Nation. In teaser cow, King Minos is a cattle baron hell-bent on world beef domination. Queen Pasiphae can't stay off the sauce. their misfit daughter spends her days slinging burgers and huffing cow patties to get high. and their son? He's the Minotaur-a half-man, half-bull monster that only a mother could love. Toss in a twelve-step program, a couple of severed fingers, and a kid-hating corporate mascot in a plush suit, and you've got one deliciously disturbing dark comedy.
