VERY BLUE LIGHT
By Daphne Silbiger
Directed by Emily Moler
Produced by Isabelle Chirls
Marfa, Texas. Two women reunite with their childhood best friend, only to find that his politics have gone askew. With uncertainty defining both the present and future, Angela faces the temptation of adopting her old friend’s conservative lifestyle, while Magna seeks (and finds) some certainty about her way forward when she and a lifelong Marfan encounter the mysterious Marfa Lights.
FALLS FOR JODIE
By Eric Micha Holmes
Directed by Terrence I. Mosley
1980. New Haven, Connecticut—Four months before he will attempt to assassinate President Ronald Reagan, John Hinckley Jr. moves into the Colony Inn with a simple plan to make Jodie Foster his girlfriend. When Eddie, the night concierge, offers to connect John to Jodie in exchange for an investment, their business partnership blossoms into an unexpected friendship, revealing a growing crisis neither recognizes in the other before it’s too late.
LEGERDEMAIN
Written by Lynn Rosen
Directed by Julie Kramer
A New Georges Supported Production | World Premiere
As Halloween approaches and a strangler is on the loose, Devin, a jaded waitress at Butterloafs, a chain restaurant in New England, gets to know Don Franz, her most devoted customer. In this comedy, bananas appear from sleeves, grief is shared, and a story’s resurrection changes lives in the blink of an eye.
SHOW TRIAL
By Laura Zlatos
Directed by Tom Costello
One woman stands alone against an oppressive regime. Drawn from the real transcripts of the 1950 trial of Milada Horáková, the Czechoslovak dissident accused of treason by a regime that had already written the verdict, Show Trial turns state propaganda into farce—with choreographed confessions, scripted testimony, and a healthy disregard for reality.
