Ordinary Days is a one act musical that examines the everyday lives of four different people in New York City. Claire and Jason test the strength of their relationship by moving in together, while a graduate student named Deb strikes up an unlikely friendship with eccentric artist Warren. Throughout the show, the seemingly minute connections they make with each other end up having the biggest impacts on each of their futures.

November 6-8

Using William Shakespeare’s most famous play about Love, “On Love: A Discussion With Romeo & Juliet” talks to real life people about their experiences with love, good and bad, while using monologues and scenes from “Romeo & Juliet” as jumping off points for each interview. “On Love: A Discussion With Romeo & Juliet” hopes to show a few of the complex ways in which Love manifest itself, and that even “perfect love” has its frailties.

*This documentary-style production will be shown at the Oxford Film Festival Drive-In at.*

When CB’s dog dies from rabies, CB begins to question the existence of an afterlife. His best friend is too burnt out to provide any coherent speculation; his sister has gone goth; his ex-girlfriend has recently been institutionalized; and his other friends are too inebriated to give him any sort of solace. But a chance meeting with an artistic kid, the target of this group’s bullying, offers CB a peace of mind and sets in motion a friendship that will push teen angst to the very limits.
