Upcoming 2023-2024 Season
The show takes place over 2 days in the heat of Texas summer in 1998 in a small intertwined town. It is a wonderful rich exploration of the actual characters, who have years of dysfunctional interactions with each other.
Best described as a white-trash, hoedown car-port cuss fight! The impetus of the two days is the untimely and scandalous death of the matriarch of the family. Sisters must come to terms with years of conflict, a brother must be loved as he is, and friendships must be examined.
Sordid lives puts the FUN in Dysfunction.

Jeff and Hunter, two struggling writers, hear about a new musical theatre festival. However, the deadline for submissions is a mere three weeks away. With nothing to lose, the pair decides to try to create something new with the help of their friends Susan, Heidi and Larry on the eighty-eights. With the cast in place, Jeff and Hunter begin a conversation about what to write about. Eventually, Jeff suggests they write about what to write about. They make a pact to write up until the festival's deadline and dream about the show changing their lives. [title of show] -- taken from the space on the festival's application form which asks for the "[title of show]" -- follows Hunter and Jeff and their friends on their journey through the gauntlet of creative self-expression. In the span of 90 minutes they write and perform their show at the festival and learn lessons about themselves as people, friends and artists.
