I'll be consistant

And sadly, uninspired to write, not because of the shows, I just feel like a slug today.  This was Saturday night's show. (Also, added cast list to the post on Aug 8, can't find the other program.)

Act 1, "The Dock," Becky Bruhn, directed by Ali el-Gasseir (Andy Jensen, Patrick Allcorn, Shawn Law, Cody Smith).  Four friends gather at an isolated lakeside where they had spend time together when they were kids.  Dare one another to swim out to a log and back.

"The Office Witch," Jennifer Dice, directed by Peter A. Jacobs (Mik Kuhlman, Ryan Spickard, Alex Matthews, Jesica Avellone.)  The assistant in the office is also a witch.

"Burned," Pamela Hobart Carter, directed by Peter Dylan O'Connor (Jocelyn Maher, Deniece Bleha, Emma J. Bamford, Adria La Morticella.)  A ritual that a sister needs to go through, a real "doctor" shows up, possibly had to do with puberty?  Unclear.

"We Would Like to Thank 4Culture," Scot Augustson, directed by Beth Peterson (Imogen Love, Sydney Tucker, Gin Hammond, Kevin Bordi, Jake Ynzunza.)  Three groups, all doing some version of "Joan of Arc" in the park, arrive to find they had been triple booked for the space.  All three try to perform at the same time.

Intermission.

Act II. "Celestial Walkabout," Juliet Waller Pruzan and Bret Fetzer.  Directed by Maria Glanz, (Heather Gautschi, Meg McLynn, Steven G. Sterne, Jim Jewell.)  Daughter is convinced that she is to do her "Bat Mitzvah" across the solar system, out to the end, and visit her relatives along the way. So she takes off in her rocket ship, visiting, and landing on Pluto by midnight, in time to witness a great "fireworks" show in the distance.

"Against My Better Judgment," Courtney Meaker.  Directed by Jen Moon (Melissa Fenwick, Scott Abernethy, Joe Zavadil.) Woman interviewing for a job, while her free-wheeling conscious tries to sabotage the interview by trying to convince her she's selling her soul for a job.  She takes the job.

"Five Before," Jerry Kraft.  Directed by Kathryn Van Meter (Elicia Wickstead, Lori Lee Haener, Brian D. Simmons, Brad Farwell, Jaryl Draper.)  Five fetuses in the womb wonder about life and birth and if they are ready to be born.

(Apologies for all the typos, one of those days.)
