Imagine, not only are you at the precipice of a moment where the worst effects of climate change can still be averted, but also, you’re a crawfish in New Orleans. Come immerse yourself in theater, then cool down with us through the power of organizing as we sing you funny songs.
Written by librarian and local performer Rel Farrar, directed by Danielle Small (Waterworld, the Musical), the 2024 production of Out of the Boil is a hilarious live musical theater experience. The original script features live piano performances from Neal Todten, plenty of pre-apocalyptic antics, along with awesome garbage sets and props by Alex Powell. We’ll have some drinks, we’ll have some laughs, we’ll organize to laissez le bon temps rouler.
The cast stars New Orleans musical talent Jade Thanars, Laura Bernas, Mike Marina, Amy DeNisco, Rachel Kim, Pete Wolf, Ratty Scurvics, Billie Little, and Meagan Miller.

Thirty years in theater. Some notable roles I've lived in are Sweeney Todd, Captain Maceath, Cleante (Mollier's Tartuff), Riff Raff (original 1973 stage play) and Sandor Ferenzie in Porcupine. I've also written, produced, directed and acted in several plays; The Shadow Merchant and The Legend of Suzie Sidesaddle were included in Infringe Fest and Fringe Fest respectively. As a composer I won a best original score award from Ambush magazine for The Madwoman of Challiotte. I love this work.

Peat Wolf
IT Person
A fischer, Peat Wolf wants to consume and compost frivolously invasive little commercial-candied dalliances that scamper about denuding the young budding brush and preventing old growth fables from again sinking true roots. Endlessly enthusiastic for fresh fearless howlers to join this loving hunt for truths, Peat believes the proper pack of diverse storied tellers can reclaim land from toxic taming attempts at saccharine screen-sedated domestication. They nourish words to finer lines and perform those shores to sheerer strands as the rivers flow to cut ever deeper and more direct.
Gabriela Bromley
Electrician
By day, Gabriela Micaela helps minds heal as an inpatient mental health technician, but by night, she swings and sings into the rhythm of New Orleans traditional blues jazz performance. Making her debut in musical theater, she's excited to take her voice from the stage of her dreams to the one before you. Jazz hands, anyone?"
