THE WOMEN OF LOCKERBIE
Playwright: Deborah Brevoort
After a terrorist’s bomb destroys Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, a battle begins between the women in the town and US officials over the clothing of the victims. In a journey towards healing, the strength and determination of a few vigilant washerwomen bring hope to the grieving, and love out of an act of hate. Inspired by a true story.

A DOG AT A FEAST
By Michelle Deines
Diane is a jaded arts critic who glories in writing bloodthirsty reviews for the shows she thinks are sub-standard—which are most of them. Maya is a starlet who has been on a string of luck and therefore sees nothing but possibility. A dark comedy, A Dog at a Feast examines the power of the fear of judgement, and how we are all our own worst critics.
