Things are heating up with Between Us this summer! First of all, from July 29th-August 2nd, we will be showing a brand new dark comedy, The Fairer Sex, by Sander Gusinow who we previous worked with on Hansen and Greta (Winner of Best Play, Take Ten 2014) and the workshop of Hell-Bent. It will be directed by our very own Samantha Lee Manas and starring Erica Becker, Michelle Liu Coughlin*, Billy Giacci, Chauncey Johnson, Micheal Markham* and Josephine Wheelwright.

Recognize any of those names from past projects? As part of our mission to foster new artists, we love to give continued opportunities to actors we meet that want the space to show their gifts.
And as part of our mission for relevant, socially challenging work, we're particularly excited about The Fairer Sex. In this original one-act, the feminist revolution is over. We won. Now what? The battle of the sexes is now an all out war that is at times hilarious, shocking and very violent.

Amazing right? Thanks MLN Designs!

Switching gears now, we're also excited about our next venture after Fairer Sex. We're going to have workshop of a new original play by our Take Ten 2015 Best Play winner, Arlene Jaffe and directed by Montgomery Sutton (nominee for Best Director, Take Ten 2015). The play is called Elli Eli and it's a funny, modern look at chronic pain. Tickets will be sold on brownpapertickets starting on August 1st and it is already listed so get to buying before we sell out! One night only on September 12th, 8pm at the Director's Studio.
