Theatre
Avenue Q is the story of Princeton, a bright-eyed college grad who comes to New York with big dreams
and a tiny bank account. He soon discovers that the
only neighborhood in his price range is Avenue Q.
Princeton and his newfound friends struggle to find
jobs, dates, and their ever-elusive purpose in life.
Most of its characters in Avenue Q are puppets, but
this is not a children’s show. It’s a mischievous and
often raunchy look at the challenges young adults
face as they try to make their way in the big city.

Bernard, a Parisian lothario, has three fiancees, each
a beautiful airline hostess. He manages this trick by
having one in the air, one on the ground, and one
awaiting arrival. Everything falls apart when his friend
Robert arrives and the airlines employ the new, faster
Boeing aircraft. Robert and Bernard have to keep
the girls apart and unaware of each other's presence.

Still Life With Iris is a fantastical adventure set in the
world of Nocturno. In this world, memories do not
reside in people's minds but instead are kept in their
coats. Without their coats, the inhabitants would lose
who they really are, because they have no memory
to depend on. When young Iris has her coat taken,
she embarks on an adventure to reclaim her history. With some help from some newfound friends,
a young Mozart and Annabel Lee, Iris goes on a journey to rescue her past and change her future.
