At a tourist trap gold mine in Dahlonega, Georgia, ghosts of the past and present haunt the employees – something Mama is trying her damnedest to keep quiet. But when strange things start happening in the mine, will an excavation of the history that's burrowed itself deep into the earth save them; or will all their pasts cave in, trapping everyone in the darkness? A play about the complicated relationship between people and place, Dahlonega turns on the lights so we can all, just maybe, see each other a little better.

It’s the first week of advent at a megachurch in Texas and a congregant’s baby has died. Mike, the head pastor, is praying for resurrection. Tess, the worship pastor, is praying for release. Gideon, her husband, is just trying to help. And they’re all barely holding on. The Lark Ascending is a play about reckoning with a garden overrun with vines, about bolstering and faltering faith, about darkness and light and how, in the end, they might be the same thing.

West Texas is a myth. The Last Best Thing is a play about that myth and maybe all the myths we tell ourselves. It’s about land and death and Charles Goodnight. It’s about a bar and music. It’s about siblings. It’s about a rattlesnake and it’s about Marfa. But it’s not Marfa. It’ll never be Marfa. Not on your life. It’s about chairs.

It’s 2049 and we are going to Mars. In the months leading up to the launch of the first manned mission to the red planet, a NASA employee gives us a glimpse into the circumstances that brought three trailblazing astronauts to the cockpit of the Argo IV. Spiraling through time and space, Argonauts is an exploration of the unknown, a journey toward death, and a surrendering to the forces that break and bind us.

Four boys experience something strange at a swimming pool. Seventeen years later, armed with fractured memories, they return to that pool.

As Kurt Vonnegut Sr. navigates the difficulties of rotating and relocating an eight-story building, he unknowingly finds himself unstuck in time, oscillating between past, present, and future plans and catastrophes. Edith Vonnegut, traveling through time and space as predictably as one can, also finds herself fluctuating between states of hopes and fears, dreams and nightmares. The Vonneguts try desperately to level out the uncertainties of life, pushing and pulling on every surface they can, believing that something miraculous can—must—happen. Maybe something as miraculous as life itself.

In 1960, Leonid Rogozov took out his own appendix. In the Antarctic. An exploration of humanity and hope, "Rogozov" partners that remarkable story with Alexander Borodin's String Quartet No. 2 as it presses into the mind of Rogozov himself, hoping to find what drives a man to survive.
