Crevice
A coming-of-age-later comedy, recent Princeton grad Liz is unemployed, jilted, depressed, on medication, and sleeping on her mom’s sofa. This play is a wry, expressionistic look at the miasma in which the Millenial generation finds itself.
Mustard
Mustard shouldn’t still be here, but he is. Imaginary friends don’t normally stay with their Person until that Person is a troubled teenager, exhibiting strangely violent behaviour. Imaginary friends don’t suddenly become visible to their Person’s mom and then go on a date with them, either. But Mustard is special. At least that’s what he thinks. And he’s not ready to leave his best friend, Thai, even though he’s in deep trouble with some unsavoury characters who are ready to enforce some serious rules. A twisted fairy tale about friendship, love, growing up, moving on and finding magic where you least expect it, this play blurs imagination with reality in order to save a family from its own destruction

Ching Chong Chinaman
"The ultra-assimilated Wong family is as Chinese-American as apple pie: teenager Upton dreams of World of Warcraft superstardom; his sister Desi dreams of early admission to Princeton. Unfortunately, Upton’s chores and homework get in the way of his 24/7 videogaming, and Desi’s math grades don’t fit the Asian-American stereotype. Then Upton comes up with a novel solution for both problems: he acquires a Chinese indentured servant, who harbors an American dream of his own." - the playwright's website
