Original Sins

ALL THE LONELY PEOPLE

Written by Lila Fields and Broderick Miller

Directed by Broderick Miller

A stranger arrives in a remote and reclusive town and discovers a quiet community of people who have mostly disconnected from each other.  His mysterious appearance is linked to a past local tragedy, and it isn’t long before some unsettling truths surface, forcing the town to confront their fragile humanity. This original interpretation of the classic Lennon-McCartney song weaves a poignant tale of lonely people whose stories are the sole thing binding them together.

FISHTAIL

Written by Nora Greenfield, Vera Manzanedo and Broderick Miller

Directed by Vera Perez Manzanedo

A freshman girl at interviews to join a coed fraternity/sorority house at Boston University – Veta Nu Beta.  However, the interview takes a slow and surprising pivot as the candidate grills the VBN leaders about a former student who became an unsolved missing person case.  Similar to the mélange of mordant wit and escalating tension of Hitchcock’s Rope, Fishtail reels the audience into a dark story of fear, selfishness and human consequences..

JOE VEGAS

Written and Directed by Broderick Miller

When things go wrong for the Las Vegas mob, police, Casino owners - for any desperate people of power – Joe Vegas is called in to “clean things up.”  His methods can sometimes be tough and violent, but his results are 100% effective. That is, until his 16-year-old estranged daughter, Swanee, calls from her high school prom to say that her boyfriend just broke up with her.  Swanee demands Joe do his thing and” fix it” – or they are forever quits.  When he arrives at the prom, Joe quickly discovers his usual intimidation tricks don't land with unimpressed teenagers.  Hilarity ensues, while a surprisingly touching father-daughter story lurks underneath. 

Joe Vegas is presented in Cast-O-Rama, meaning the actors have learned every role in the play.  They will be assigned a specific character randomly before each performance.  There is no repeating, so they will play a new character each show.
