MACHINAL
A young woman marries her boss, and it appears to be a happy marriage—until she murders him. Based on a true crime story that shocked the nation, this landmark 1928 expressionist play is the journey of a woman who revolts against the machinery of conventional expectations and ends up in the electric chair.
MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING
No ordinary romantic comedy, dangers abound in this Shakespeare classic, famously featuring combative and zesty zingers from the prototypical sparring lovers, Beatrice and Benedick.
