Brass Ring
Synopsis:
Brass Ring is a collection of fragments from the last 30 years of our cultural conscience, composed into kaleidoscopic stories using both rehearsed material and live composition. Pulling from sources such as news stories, interviews, viral videos, public service announcements, children's television programming, social experiments, and office handbooks, Brass Ring examines how goals are created, how those goals evolve as we grow older, and the consequences of achieving them

Resisting Change
Synopsis:
Fullerton and Rosette enter the performance space in search of sanctuary. In a message Fullerton records to send to anyone who may still be listening, we learn that the world outside is in a state of dangerous chaos. He refers to "the changed," people who have somehow been taken over by an unnamed force. But as Fullerton, Rosette, and later their colleague McIntosh learn, it isn't always easy to tell who has changed, and whether or not change is a good thing.

Truce On Uranus
Synopsis:
Truce On Uranus tells the story of a young playwright's bitter break-up with his home planet. Fed-up with too much romantic and theatrical rejection, Mark decides it's time for a change. When our playwright quits earth for Uranus, absurd mysteries and dark secrets explode for the characters he leaves behind. Guidance, and danger, can come in the form of a tortured prophetess or a moon in drag. and the causes of our problems, we come to learn, have surprisingly little to do with what planet they take place on. Mark learns to make peace in this world-premiere queer farce about surviving life in the theater, in Love, and on planet earth.
