Slasher

by Allison Moore

Dec. 3rd – Dec. 18th

Directed by Chuck Harper

 

 

When she’s cast as the “last girl” in a low-budget slasher flick, Sheena thinks it’s the big break she’s been waiting for. But news of the movie unleashes her malingering mother’s thwarted feminist rage, and Mom is prepared to do anything to stop filming…even if it kills her.

 

Introducing our 2011 Season!

True West

By Sam Shepard

Directed by Doug Finlayson

Feb. 4th – Feb. 19th

The season kicks off with Sam Shepard's True West - now a modern classic that made both John Malcovich and Gary Sinise stars! Two brothers come to a head with their testosterone-driven rivalries that climaxes with a riotous collaboration that literally reduces their relationship to a pile of rubble.

 

Intelligent Life

By Lauren Dusek

Directed by Annamaria Pileggi

April 29th – May 14th

Set in the basement of a tenant house in Utah, "Intelligent Life" tells the farcical tale of extraterrestrial, peyote-driven enthusiasts, self-titled "Utah Alien Chasers." This ramshackle group discovers a mud-stained little boy in a dinosaur costume who may or may not be an alien. What is certain is that the boy has a genius level IQ and telekinetic powers that are beyond this world!

 

The Winners

By David L. Williams

Directed by Marty Stanberry

Sept. 9th – Sept. 24th

Cassie and Kurt just won $337 million in the lottery! The first thing they buy? A night with a call-girl! What starts as a playful fantasy turns into something darker when one person decides that sex is not the only thing for sale – what price would you pay to make all your fantasies come true?

 

The 6th Annual GreenHouse New Play Festival

November 18th, 19th, and 20th

Three plays "in progress" are chosen from over 250 submitted by playwrights all over the world. Each script is given a workshop that includes professional directors on staff at HotCity, a professional dramaturg (a literary drama scholar) and professional local actors. This workshop provides a springboard for re-writes, culminating in readings at the festival by professional actors and adjudicated by HotCity artistic staff. At the festival event, scripts are performed as staged readings, followed by talkback sessions where you, the patrons, are given the opportunity to offer your thoughts and ask questions of the playwrights.

 

Whammy!

A Special GreenHouse production

conceived and directed by Chuck Harper

Dec. 2nd – Dec. 17th

Oprah Winfrey and Ethel Merman. Dr. Phil and Phil Silvers. Nietzche and The Shirelles? WTF? The artistic team that brought you "The Probe: An Inquiry into the Meteoric Rise and Spectacular Fall of Orson Welles in Hollywood" rides again in this madcap multi-media dance-theatre comic exploration of self-help, sexual dysfunction, 1960's dance parties, obsessive-compulsive disorder, pharmaceutical bliss and suicide. Want to know the seven secrets to a sane self? You know you do.
