New Voices this weekend. It runs Thursday through Saturday, a 2.5 hour festival of 12 plays. It's at 7pm on Thursday and Saturday, and Friday's shows are split into a matinee at 5 and the rest continuing at 8.

Actor in 1 play
Things
elenuial is involved in:
Playwright of 2 plays
Director of 1 play
Actor in 1 play
It's completely free (thought you should show up early to ensure you get tickets), and takes place at WPI's Little Theatre. Come and see all the hard work we've put into this. It's got some awesome shows! The website has all the plays listed in their show order, and I can easily give out some synopses if you like.
The plays that
elenuial and I are working with:
Sympathy for the Devil, Inc. - What happens when you're an out-of-work demon in the modern age? Fire-breathing barbecue chefs, eight-legged track coaches, etc. - this special agency is the best place to solve all of your problems.
Glow - College seniors go out looking for fireflies in what seems like a childish pasttime but turns out to be the best time to reflect on their imminent adulthood.
How to meet Girls, for Voice Actors - Seeing the lives of the people behind the voices, and how they reflect (or contradict) their counterparts.
Walt and Wilde - What would happen if two of the greatest literary minds of their time ever met? Intelligent, meaningful conversation? Pfft. Booze, brawling, and cowboys, that's what.
Believe me, it'll be so totally worth it to see them. I know a lot of you are literary geeks, so seeing
Walt and Wilde would make your nights. I promise. I see it every night, and it
still cracks me up.
See you there!
