written by Barbara Kahn; music by Allison Tartalia

A hotly debated war; legislation branding dissenters as unpatriotic; anti-foreign sentiments inspiring anti-immigration laws; families torn apart by generational conflicts; lesbians and gays finding each other in Greenwich Village; music and art flourishing in New York City. No, it isn't 2007-it's 1918: A House Divided. The musical includes artists, Jewish immigrants, lesbians and gays, and a nude artists' model. Original music by Allison Tartalia evokes the time period, from patriotic tunes to Yiddish flavored ethnic melodies to ragtime and more. Locations include an artists co-op sketch class, a bohemian club on Macdougal Street, and a drag ball at Webster Hall.

The Ghosts of 14th Street is set in New York City in 1908, when 14th Street was the entertainment capital of the city. In the Biograph Film Studio, the actors film scenes of a primitive one-reeler, while between takes they reveal their dreams, fall in love and practice routines they hope will take them to live theatre. A husband and wife acting team are forced by scandal to work in the 'flickers', an immigrant housekeeper leaves her gangster husband from an arranged marriage, a dancer finds love at the gay hangout, his sister laments her unrequited love for the housekeeper, an African American dancer refuses to perform in blackface, and two stagehands are determined to win the New York Times Limerick Contest. In the Olympic Theatre, the play replicates a typical evening of Vaudeville, including dance, comedy skits, female mimickry (cross-dressing), and the song 'Yiddishe Yankee Doodle Boy' (lyrics by Barbara Kahn, music by Allison Tartalia), as well as the finished film.

Inspired by poems written by the playwright's father, Long Time Passing is a fable set in the ruins of Central Park during an endless war. There are no 'sides' in the play, and no politics, only the story of war's devastation on all living things. And in keeping with the spirit of life, there is endless hope amidst the endless war

This is a new historical drama written and directed by Barbara Kahn, inspired by the women-only groups of fusgeyers(pedestrians) who walked across Rumania to escape hardship and discrimination. This description is provided by the playwright: "Five women in a small village prepare to join a larger group that is leaving a nearby city in three months. Two of the women are drawn to each other and plan to stay together in America. A pogrom (rampage against Jews) brings tragedy and provides greater impetus for the women to risk the journey. Two Gypsies function throughout the play as a 'Greek chorus', with folk tales and music that comment on the action. Walking from Rumania concludes on a hopeful note, with the fusgeyers on the verge of beginning their daring escape."
