Balthazar, Melchior, and Caspar are three kings. Balthazar gave a baby myrrh, Melchior gave a baby gold, and Caspar gave a baby frankincense. Balthazar, Melchior, and Caspar are all in love with each other. A play about growing up, loving your exes, and getting further, and further away from your biggest accomplishments in life for everyone who loved Three Kings Day.

Tanner & Archie work at a museum. Finn & Cillian are Americans in Ireland. Osgar & Irial died over four thousand years ago. A play about power-dynamics, love, and preserving dead things (or trying to) that traverses place, time, and culture.

Mom likes to volunteer at the local health clinic with her friends. Well, outside of it. Praying. It's OK, because Dad comes home and loves her. Daughter is still young, still figuring it out, & Son is building something. And Miri is... the young woman Mom convinced to come live with the family, in their home, instead of going through with her procedure at the health clinic. A play about a pro-life family in the midst of the climate apocalypse that draws inspiration from Greek tragedies, Sarah Kane plays, and Christian fanaticism.

Sam (believes in aliens, maybe) and Catherine (doesn't believe in anything) visit Rachel, Nevada (the closest human settlement to Area 51) and while there they strike up fast friendships with Teri (believes in God, wants to be a nun) and Orville (believes in aliens, drinks too much). As the group navigates their own personal griefs and beliefs, they find out that sometimes it doesn't matter what's real or what isn't because bad things still happen regardless.

When Martín comes out to his mother, la señora Doña Marina goes to extreme lengths to make sure that her son keeps it a secret with the help of La Virgen, Diosito, and a priest. But when Marina realizes she might have acted a bit too impulsively, she has to—again—go to extreme lengths to make everything right. Unfortunately, Martín and his new otherworldly boyfriend are anything but forgiving. A sort-of insane play about love, revenge, and continuously forgiving those who have hurt our hearts.

Alejandra has finally secured a spot in Green Street Studio's emerging dancer development program, Teeny Beans. But so has Virginia. And her best friend Bernardo didn't get a spot. And Alejandra's finally performing something directly connected to her Mexican roots, but why does she feel like such a phony? A play & performance about what it’s like navigating the arts scene in Boston as a Mexican-American artist, the competition inherent to artist "communities", and general immigrant family diaspora feelings.
