The lineup includes works by Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winner John Patrick Shanley, Lyle Kessler, Bekah Brunstetter, and other distinguished writers, each exploring the ways people push past the boundaries that define and confine them. The evening offers a range of styles and tones, from comic to dramatic, intimate to expansive.
