THE LIFESPAN OF A FACT
by Jeremy Karen, David Murrell, and Gordon Farrell
November 2–19
In this corner, Facts. And in this corner, Truth. Jim (Ian Garthwaite) is fresh out of college and working as a fact checker for a prestigious magazine. John (David A. Gingerich) is an acclaimed writer whose brilliant essay might just save the magazine from collapse. But Jim’s meticulous fact checking of John’s essay leads to all-out war between the men, with Emily (Ricki G. Ravitts), the beleagured editor, caught squarely in the middle.
“…terrifically funny dialogue…once the writer and the fact-checker get into a lively debate on the ethics of factual truth vs. the beauty of literary dishonesty, it’s time to really sit up and listen.” —Variety.

JULIE & JANE
by Margaret Raether
March 7–24
Jane (Marissa Noel Swanson) is working on a biography of Julie (Erin Philpott), but Julie keeps on interfering, offering unsolicited opinions, even though she’s dead. But a little thing like death won’t stop her.
Julia Lathrop and Jane Addams first met as schoolgirls (“troublemakers” decrees one irate teacher) at Rockford Female Seminary (now Rockford University) and marched forth to shake the world. Over their sixty-year friendship, they bickered, rejoiced, commiserated and supported one another.
This world premiere play chronicles their lives and friendship. Purchase single tickets HERE.
ANNABELLA IN JULY
by Richard Strand
May 9–26
Vanessa and Brian are a middle-aged couple taking a little anniversary trip in July, when they lose their way in the mountains. Finally, they come upon a ski lodge (out of season) where, to their bewilderment, everyone immediately recognizes Vanessa as the glamorous, dazzling Annabella, who visits this same resort every January.
To say that they’re bewildered is putting it mildly… A magical comedy from the playwright of Ben Butler.
“Clever and very funny mystery-fantasy-comedy.” — San Diego Union-Tribune
