Scabies, drag queens, and talking stuffed animals.A Lambda Literary Award finalist, ’Dose: Plays & Monologues’ is the first full-length collection of Dan Bernitt’s dramatic works.In the one-act ’Almost,’ Mark and Paul have a beer to catch up on life since the college dorm. When Mark asks for a hug as they say goodbye, the reticent Paul sharply refuses. How did these two young men arrive at the point where they can’t even touch? At once comic and devastating, ’Almost’ quietly dissects a prejudice that does not say its name.With a voice often likened to David Sedaris, the volume also features the texts to Bernitt’s critically-acclaimed solo performances, including the tragicomic self-portrait ’Thanks for the Scabies, Jerkface!’ and the monologues ’Button-Down Showgirl’ and ’My Parents Talk to Stuffed Animals.’'One of America’s next great monologists.'- Emily Otto, nytheatre.com'Simultaneously hysterical and heart wrenching ... Bernitt’s personal accounts of intense discomfort and social embarrassment are starlingly universal.'- Paul Menard, Back Stage'It is Bernitt’s talent as a writer that is stunning. He is incredible. ... The tempo and nuance of his words are so well-chosen that even his prose becomes poetry.' - Paul Kreft, Cincinnati CityBeat

  • Mississippi Goddamn
    Jonathan Norton
       “Some shows have warnings for strobe lights. Some have them for loud gunshots.  Some for smoke.   MISSISSIPPI GODDAMN, a new play by Jonathan Norton should have one for intensity.   Granted, anyone attending a play about civil rights pioneer Medgar Evers set in 1963 Jackson, Mississippi, should expect some strife. Blood in the battle for racial equality is no surprise, but f...

  • The Lady From Maxim’s
    Georges Feydeau / Laurence Senelick
       “It seems to me that for fertility in droll inventions, the perpetual outpouring of unforeseen misunderstandings, for the inexhaustible gaiety of dialogue, Feydeau’s new play is superior to everything he’s written so far. The most astonishing thing is the sureness with which everything is controlled, explained, justified, in the most extravagant buffoonery. The cross-purpose...

  • Fit For A Queen
    Betty Shamieh
       “Plenty of glamorous backstabbing, diva dissing and sexual double-crossing…has every right to claim the name Dynasty for itself.  But the title character in Betty Shamieh’s bouncy, bumpy comic melodrama is the real thing. A queen, I mean, and not just of the self-dramatizing type. Scratch that. She’s more than a queen. She’s a pharaoh, one Hatshepsut, who reigned over Egypt ...
