The Normal Heart
by Larry Kramer 
Directed by Steven A. Chambers
10/7 - 10/30/05

What do you do if hundreds of people you know start getting sick and
dying, no one knows why,  and the government refuses to admit
there's a problem?  Science fiction?  No!  New York in 1981.  The
Normal Heart is "An important document of the early history of the
AIDS crisis—with, unfortunately, no less urgency today—it is a
searching, often witty, and rousingly humane drama."  John Simon, NY
Magazine

#2

Barefoot Boy With Shoes On
by Edwin Sanchez  
11/26 - 12/18/05

Rosario Cortez lives with his father and grandfather in a single
room occupancy hotel and supports them all by working as a window
washer.  His girlfriend is pregnant and he is willing to do anything
to provide a better life for "his son."  Can a Puerto Rican window
washer find his "happily ever after?" "BAREFOOT BOY WITH SHOES ON
(By the author of TRAFFICKING IN BROKEN HEARTS) is . . . a touching
drama that's worthy of attention..."  David Kaufman, NYDaily News

(or The Re-Education of Undine)
by Lynn Nottage
2/25 - 3/19/06
Lynn Nottage's Follow-Up to her 1994 NY Drama Critics' Award Winner,
INTIMATE APPAREL.  And the NY critics loved it!!
"(A) robustly entertaining comedy!" Ben Brantley, NY Times

"Lynn Nottage's new satire, "Fabulation or, The Re-Education of
Undine," is a morality play etched in acid and laced with humor
about the scandalous fall of a pushy public-relations diva and her
ethical regeneration." United Press Int'l

. . . And Then She Moved The Furniture 
by Manny Diez 
Directed by David Jay Bernstein 
5/13-6/4/06
World Premiere by Screenwriter and Miami Playwright, Manny Diez. 
Based on actual events.  It is a little-known fact that, based on
documented and tragic results,  The U.S. Army warns all wives of
soldiers departing for war, not to move the furniture while their
soldier is away.  This gripping and brilliantly written drama is
based on the true story of a soldier who left for "Desert Storm" and
returned to find his wife had moved the furniture.
