Seven trans college students fall in love with each other and secretly distribute HRT while learning how to box in the red state of Ohio.
A biting comedy for young trans actors in red states across the country.

Nate’s trying to keep The Fields Of Hell (voted Northwest Ohio’s #1 Haunted House Attraction between 2003-2018) afloat after his dad’s sudden death. Joan, his friend since high school (and the best Mistress of the Swamp this haunt has ever seen) woke up this morning and decided to become the thing that scares her most. Teeny and Franny, AKA The Terror Tots, are attached at the hip…but this hip might need a replacement when Teeny gets promoted. Left behind, Franny is stuck with August, a cis gay man who’s returned to Ohio after his life in New York fell apart. August’s carrying a secret…but it might not be as terrible (or strange) as the secret Franny is keeping in the basement. Meanwhile, a visitor discovers euphoria in the body horror of the haunt. We might be sitting on a portal to hell, and it might become a swampland paradise…if those Midwest Moms don’t kill us first.

​Mag is back in their small Ohio hometown, juggling an underwhelming queer scene and and overwhelming mother. A dead horse won’t shut up about being dumped in the East River. And from the depths, an ancient being rises to take its rightful place.
​Inspired by the Creature from the Black Lagoon, toxic algal blooms in the Great Lakes, and phone calls with your mom, this highly theatrical play celebrates queer joy in the face of climate devastation.

While their parents party upstairs Like It’s 1999, five young girls count down to Y2K and wonder what The End Of The World will look like from their basement. Childhood games unravel the truths their parents won’t tell them, and each must decide what they owe to the people they call family.

An homage to the girls who raised us when our parents weren't watching.

It’s the hottest day of the summer and nine teenage lifeguards in small-town Ohio are stuck at work. Their swimming pool is getting shut down at the end of the season, and everyone’s freaked out about what comes next. As the lifeguards rotate, relationships get tested. Nostalgia butts up against bodily fluids. Everyone tries to figure out Who Stole The Money...and also, the clock is acting, like, really weird. Does anybody else see that?

With irreverent charm and great heart, Guarding honors the thankless task of keeping each other alive, and the people you come of age with—whether you want to or not.

Sonya meets Alex, her new neighbor, and romance erupts. They have nothing in
common: Sonya is neat, Alex is lazy. Sonya loves the outdoors, Alex would rather play
computer games. It shouldn't work. So what is keeping these two together?

Above their heads, Tee's been hearing voices. Voices telling her she isn't real. And
neither is her best friend Jay. Because, the voices tell her, birds aren't “birds” - they're
spy drones working for the government in the 1980s. If only Tee knew what a "1980" was.

A comedic take on surveillance, conspiracies, and social simulation games like The Sims.
What is real? Where do the voices in our heads come from? Who can we trust?
