Event Description

Roosevelt’s Ghosts
by Aaron Scully


Warresnburg, MO
Produced by CCAC South Campus Theatre


On February 14th, 1884, Theodore Roosevelt suffered the loss of his mother and his wife within hours of each other. Legend has it that Roosevelt spent time in his study alone and when he came out he hardly ever spoke of his mother or wife again. This play explores one idea of what may have happened during that time in his study.


 


The Pivot
by Seth Freeman


Pacific Palisades, CA
Produced by The Summer Company


In this very short play’s genre-bending structure, an apparently well-qualified job applicant simultaneously faces and doesn’t face unexpected obstacles.


 


Doing Time
by Mary Poindexter McLaughlin


East Aurora, NY
Produced by The Theatre Factory


Confined in an undefined time and place, a young man attempts to write his “Book of Life” amidst the interruptions of an old man. Together, they argue about the significance of memory and the consequences of an undocumented life, ultimately helping each other learn the greatest lesson of all: the freedom of letting go.
