SIX DEGREES OF SEPARATION
By John Guare
A charming young African-American stranger arrives at the door of a NYC society dinner party and claims to be the son of actor Sidney Poitier. Witty, clever, and intriguing, Six Degrees of Separation is a commentary on the things that drive us all — the desire for wealth, fame, social standing, and meaningful human connection.
A BODY OF WATER
By Lee Blessing
An attractive, middle-aged couple awakes in an isolated summerhouse above a picturesque body of water. The weather's fine; the view's great; but there's only one problem — neither of them can remember who they are. A Body of Water is a coproduction with Stageworks. Both the Gorilla Pass and the Stageworks flex-pass will be valid for this play.
ELIZABETH AND EDWARD
By Aubrey Hampton
A new play by Gorilla Theatre founder Aubrey Hampton, Elizabeth and Edward dips into the history of Elizabethan England; the world of Marlowe, Bacon, and the man we call "Shakespeare". Based on documented details in the lives of Queen Elizabeth I and Edward de Vere, the play speculates that de Vere was the real author of "Shakespeare"s masterpieces.
