Fringeelement Entertainement presents:

CLOSURE

By Jake Perry

Septermber 10th - 26th

Thursdays- Saturdays @ 7pm

Sundays @ 3pm

Fringeelement Entertainement

BUY TICKETS

Since its inception in 2007, Fringeelement Entertainement has sought to champion the American counter-culture through its work in film. This new work, written by artistic director Jake Perry and directed by Errol McClendon, brings that tradition to the stage.

Closure is a taught psychological drama that questions whether the things we are supposed to want are the same as the things we actually want.

When Maria, a young woman with a promising future, is found dead under mysterious circumstances, three of her old friends reunite after years apart to pay homage to her. But in trying to relive the "good old days" they soon realize that some days are only good when old. Scabs are torn from old wounds and new afronts are perpetrated. As tensions mount and suspicions grow, they soon realize that none of their lives have gone as planned since splitting apart. Will they close the door on their pasts and move forward, or end up in the same early grave as Maria?

In the Studio Theatre: Poetry Magazine (Poetry Foundation) presents:

A theatrical interpretation of LIVES OF THE DEAD by Hanoch Levin

translated from the Hebrew by Atar Hadari

REEFER MADNESS! THE MUSICAL

Book by Kevin Murphy and Dan Studney

Lyrics by Kevin Murphy

Music by Dan Studney

Directed by M. William Panek

facebook

Inspired by the original 1936 film of the same name, this raucous musical comedy takes a tongue- in- cheek look at the hysteria caused when clean-cut kids fall prey to marijuana, leading them on a hysterical downward spiral filled with evil jazz music, sex and violence. "REEFER MADNESS!" is

a hilarious and highly stylized and satirical political

commentary.

October 14th- 24th

Thursdays - Saturdays @ 7pm

Sundays - 3pm

Thursday and Sunday shows - $15

Friday and Saturday shows - $20
