Theme: Science Fiction
Duration: 75-90 minutes
SYNOPSIS: An evening of eight science fiction comedies that combines the uniquely weird with the incredibly awesome! These character-driven shorts challenge the assumptions that sci-fi is too expensive to stage and/or all about “spaceships and laser guns.” In Boom!, three scientists try to deactivate a real “time bomb” that keeps blowing them up over and over again. In the wry Fabulous Facesucker, everyone in the future gets their face sucked off, but no one ever asks why. Our Darkest Hour is a chilling tale of Earth's first contact with aliens with a unique twist at the end. The comically touching The Spark Between Us is about companionship in the distant future. And The Nacho Effect is an outrageous look at the choices we make and the nachos we eat. This collection of short plays uses minimal props and sets, and focuses on the characters and their interactions. Beam Future Transmission up, and bring new worlds to your stage!
