No one will be turned away who is unable to pay. "Our Fictions Will Outlive Us" is presented by BrooklynONE Productions (bkONE).

This is the 14th season of original indie theater from D3C. Each performance will feature a deluxe reissue: one play drawn from the previous 13 seasons along with two new "B-Sides" that fit the theme of the older play.

Each night will also include a "liner notes" presentation from Gracia discussing the background, historical context, and process behind the plays.

"Our Fictions Will Outlive Us" features:

"The Wickedest Girls in the World Plan to Assassinate Thomas Edison," where two members of a Burlesque sister act vow to stop the destruction of vaudeville by the coming motion picture industry.

In "How I love You and Your Sad Refrain," Nikola Tesla is sitting on a park bench feeding pigeons when he is joined by burlesque dancer Lotte Faust. Together, they discover that both art and science deal in the horrifying and fascinating.

In "God bless Lili St. Cyr," a famous burlesque dancer speaks with a court appointed psychologist after her second arrest for public indecency.

This show includes a burlesque performance by Audrey Three and may not be suitable for persons under 18.

Gracia describes "Our Fictions Will Outlive Us" as "a night of theatre about the comfort and purity of the past, the thrill of building a new future, and how little control we have over the way we will be remembered."

"Our Fictions Will Outlive Us" features: Marisela Grajeda Gonzalez, Julie Kerner, Sean Meehan, Anthony Marino, Mitch Richman, and Maia Sage.
