Company: an alleged Theatre Company
Show: A Swimming Lesson in a Theatre Without a Lifeguard
Venue: Theatre in the Round
Unfathomable horrors lay beneath the waves.
A lighthearted and primarily educational romp with absolutely no post-traumatic episodes, phone calls from the doctor, or eldritch extra-dimensional creatures beyond comprehension.
Company: Blinking Eye Theatre
Show: Romeo & Juliet Are Dead
Venue: Rarig Center Arena

Romeo and Juliet not tragic enough for ya, eh? Then buckle up for the epilogue! Clever deconstruction of not only the characters, tropes, and style of the original play, but of larger themes of eternity, identity, and the half-life of love itself. Also revealed: how much chalk can kill you.
Company: Ashen Armor Productions
Show: The Definition of Loss
Venue: Mixed Blood Theatre
Outstanding.
Somber, abstract, but overall unflinchingly honest. The Definition of Loss is an exploration of the depths of one person’s grief, but manages to avoid falling into the easy trap of becoming bleak or depressing. This show blends dance, drama, and even some humor to illustrate that grief is never a straight line, and always full of unexpected insights and emotions. Put it on your must-see list!
