Veronica Carey Matthews navigates this show as she (Veronica) narrates the story of her previous identity (Carey) and his journey into transitioning. Having struggled for years on the Hollywood scene, Carey was starting to make some strides as an actor and a performer. He did a one man show, he directed, he won some local awards…things were slowly moving upward until he got in his own way. As his life started to fall apart, Carey had to make some changes; and while change was in the air, an even bigger life “transition” was afoot. Get Tickets.
Gideon and the Blundersnorp by Michael Gordon Shapiro and New Musicals International. Winner of the 2021 Fringe Award for Musicals and Operas. 2021 Combined Artform Pick of the Fringe.

A stablehand who wants to be a knight. A noblewoman who wants her freedom. And the monster who wants to eat them both.
GIDEON AND THE BLUNDERSNORP is a witty musical set in a medieval fantasy world. The plot concerns a stablehand and highborn noble girl teaming up to save a royal cavalier from a rampaging monster. The theme of the show is: are our futures determined by social class, or can we create our own destinies through choice and action? Get Tickets.

(It’s Been Seventy-Six Years and We’re) Still Waiting for Lefty
Hollywood Fringe Encore
Thursday, September 9th @ 7pm
It’s been seventy-six years since Clifford Odets’ groundbreaking play WAITING FOR LEFTY premiered in New York. Inspired by the New York Taxi Driver Strike of 1934, Odets took to the page to explore the ills of society at the time and use that platform to call for radical change. The show was a smash hit, becoming one of the most famous pieces of agitprop theatre of its day and launching Odets’ career to stratospheric heights. But in the time since then, what’s actually changed? Have things gotten better for us, or have they actually gotten worse? Using the original as a framework, “STILL WAITING” delves deep into the issues of today and confronts some hard-to-swallow realities. Get Tickets.
