There’s no re-wind button on the DVR of life.
As the owners of Party City Now rebrand their wedding business to embrace marriage equality, Dave, their gay Music Director, has never felt more alone. Doomed to a life of playing weddings, Dave longs for a love of his own. But, when he’s forced to sing a duet with Human Rights Attorney, Harris, sparks ignite and hope is born. As three diverse couples struggle to find compromise, this new romantic musical comedy I AM, I WILL, I DO teaches us that perhaps being “outside the norm” is the new normal.

Attack of the Elvis Impersonators
at The Lion Theatre at Theatre Row
Performances Begin June 1, 2017
From Lory Lazarus, the writer of "Courage, the Cowardly Dog," ATTACK OF THE ELVIS IMPERSONATORS is a rollicking and irreverent new musical comedy featuring an original score, swooning fangirls, an antichrist, world peace, a social media star, the spirit of Elvis ... and of course, a hero! When Drac Frenzie, a burnt-out world famous heavy metal icon decides to save himself from self-destruction by impersonating Elvis, a miracle occurs -- which leads him to not only saving himself, but also the world. This show satirizes everything from topics of self-identity, society, organized religion and the state of humanity all in an insanely riotous way! ATTACK OF THE ELVIS IMPERSONATORS will make you howl as it converts you to Hound Dog: the new religion of peace.

Shakespeare on the Sound's Macbeth
Pinkney Park, CT
June 15-July 2
Directed by Artistic Director Claire Shannon Kelly, MACBETH will transform the idyllic Pinkney Park on the Five Mile River to the eerie Scottish Highlands. Kelly wants the production to be an immersive experience for the audience; Macbeth’s journey will be their journey too. Kelly and the designers, Brian Prather (sets), Grier Coleman (costumes) and Jamie Roderick (lighting) blur the lines between actors and audience with a setting that evokes the Ouroboros (the ancient symbol of a snake eating its own tail). Several individual set locations will allow for the action of the play to be performed in and around the audience. Lady Macbeth (Obie Award winner Winsome Brown) feeds Macbeth’s (Drama Desk Award winner Graham Stevens) ambition and gives him the strength to pursue his darkest desires.
