Adventure Quest

Synopsis:
the town of Perilton has been invaded by an evil wizard, and only our hero can save it! Cheer as he fights for the hand of the mayor's daughter! Gasp as he infiltrates the bloodthirsty Octopus Cult! Watch as he meticulously collects inventory items! Shift uncomfortably in your seat as the narrative gradually implodes! Glance around nervously as characters are brutally murdered for no particular reason! Despair as your faith in a meaningful, ordered universe is shaken! evoking the Golden age of home computer gaming, adventure Quest is both a nostalgic treat and a glimpse into the yawning Void.

Brief History Of Murder, A

Synopsis:
This is from the press release: "a mind-bending collision of Grand Guignol, David Lynch, Broadway musicals, and police procedurals, a Brief History of Murder tells the story of a series of grisly killings in the small town of Sentinel, Oklahoma. This sprawling, absurd mystery appears in a double billing of two independent yet interlocking plays: Detectives follows an intrepid private investigator and her colleagues as they try to track down the killer; Victims reveals the dark underbelly of Sentinel as its colorful inhabitants become tangled in horrific events beyond their control. From the creators of the indie theater hit adventure Quest, this is a truly unique and occasionally stomach-turning theatrical experience."

Moose That Roared, The

Synopsis:
On October 10, 1912, theodore Roosevelt was shot in the chest by a crazed gunman before a campaign speech in Milwaukee. Refusing medical attention, he went on to speak for over an hour before finally agreeing to go to the hospital. the Moose that Roared is a bombastic reimagining of TR's quixotic third-party bid for the presidency on the Bull Moose ticket in 1912. Using puppetry, musical interludes, found text, and Shakespeare, this is an irreverent celebration of the myth of the Bull Moose and the rebel spirit in American politics.

Piper Mckenzie's Dainty Cadaver

Synopsis:
18 playwrights. 3 plays. One performance of each. Piper McKenzie's Dainty Cadaver is an exquisite Corpse-style playmaking project in which multiple playwrights collaborate on a single work without knowing what the hell the others are doing. each writer reads the previous scene, writes a new scene, and passes it on to the next writer - who doesn't see any of what came earlier. Beautiful madness ensues. For its inaugural edition, Piper McKenzie will present one-night-only performances of three new plays written in this unique collaborative style, with results ranging from inspired chaos to eerie synchronicity - all tied together by the unique voices of 18 hot playwrights, divided into three teams and staged by three directors. the teams and their performance details are as follows: TeaM a: Fri 1/28, 8pm: Johnna adams, eric Bland, Jeff Lewonczyk, Mac Rogers, Crystal Skillman, art Wallace. Directed by Jordana Williams. TeaM B: Sat 1/29, 8pm: Danny Bowes, Matt Freeman, Qui Nguyen, Carolyn Raship, August Schulenburg, alexis Sottile. Directed by Hope Cartelli. TeaM C: Sun 1/30, 3pm: Maggie Cino, James Comtois, John DeVore, Cara Francis, Rich Lovejoy, Justin Maxwell. Directed by John Hurley.
