What Are You Doing?

Synopsis:
During a warm-up game, the cast of a high school play is presented with a challenge: how do you act out writing the perfect high school play? The cast is stumped, the director is perplexed, and everyone begins to wonder if they are worthy of the theater if they can't get past this simple task. But just when they are about to give up, a stranger visits rehearsal -- a man claiming to be the world's greatest high school playwright. . .

When Doorjambs Malfunction

Synopsis:
Sixteen-year-old Greta wakes up one morning and finds herself in an unusual universe where her parents are androids -- it seems her doorway has become a space-time portal. As the day progresses, she encounters worlds that range from eerily perfect to utterly terrifying. With the help of an unusual maintenance man and a Marx Brothers-esque repair crew, Greta embarks on a hilarious quest to stay in her own world. Which one does she belong in? Only Greta can tell us, and it's unclear if even she knows.
