Stay tuned for our 2022 season announcement!
The Theatre [Untitled] Concert Series features the work of up-and-coming singer/songwriters and provides an exploratory platform for artists to experiment and connect with a larger community of collaborators. Each concert will be streamed virtually and in person tickets will be released as CDC guidelines allow us to gather.
The Reading Series is a series of new works in development that cultivates a symbiotic relationship between the playwright, artists, and audience. This critical relationship pushes the piece to the point of ignition and empowers audiences to be active participants in the art they experience.

Unfinishedness
|
Unfinishedness is a one-act musical comedy tackling the issues that many young adults find themselves in today. When life is suddenly halted and you are left wondering, “What do I do now?” In this world, we are introduced to Dude, a young person trying to become a writer. While he is trying to finish his song, many of the unfinished ideas, moments, and relationships from his life, in the form of three other actors, come to him and demand that he finish their part of the story first. In the process, we discover his own personal failings and feelings of inadequacy that have led him to this point in his life, as we journey with him until he ultimately learns to accept and embrace his own “unfinishedness.”
