On Friday, July 20th, at 7pm, ARTS46/4 presents Trust Me, an original immersive theatre experience starring improv duo Hawk & Wayne as Senatorial candidates hosting a public debate.

The Heather Kicks Off Its 2018 Season With Laughs
After a highly successful '17 season, the Heather's artistic director Ward Smith announces the Heather's first production of 2018 with Sam Bobrick's comedy BAGGAGE. Two difficult and single people, Bradley and Phyllis, both trying to heal from their respective disappointing relationships, get their luggage mixed up at the airport. After a very disagreeable first encounter, the two decide to help each other get over their heartaches by forcing a friendship that eventually leads to the two discovering that while they may be too difficult for everyone else in the world, but they are perfect for each other. Throw in an analyst, a kooky female friend of Phyllis and direction from film, television and stage actor Ricky Wayne and you have the ingredients for this very funny comedy.
