"Bed Frames" 
Written and Directed By Miller Pyke

A young artistic couple explores how relatable relationships are in the modern era. Can we really, fully explore our dreams and potential while strapped to another person? 

"Said and Done"
Written and Directed By Kasey Tackett 

At the End of All Things, long after the demise of the human race or of any evidence that a universe existed at all, we are confronted with the lamentations of one final, lonely atom. As he tries with all of his might to discover his purpose, we are able to observe the interactions of the ideas that once held us together as a species.

Starring:
Lindsay Harris, April Zavala , Kayla Williams, Joel White , Xavier Williams , Miller Pyke  and Kasey Tackett

The St. Blaze Alumni Musical is a story of graduates of the St. Blaze Preparatory Theater program who return to their high school to put on a show to save their theater from closing. Old romances are rekindled, old musical rivalries are renewed, and old people have to re-learn how to dance, sing, and make jazz with their hands. Written by Lauren Reeves Wallace and John M. Farrell (Willy Wonka and the Bad Legal Pun), with music and lyrics by Nick Martin (Teen Brain, Skippyjon Jones), and based on a true story, the St. Blaze Alumni Musical is for anyone who ever felt they needed a little more drama in their life.

An Evening of Music-Theater

with Scot Gresham-Lancaster,

Dean Terry and Fred Curchack

 
Three utterly demented UTD Professors team up for an evening of death-defying music-theater.

This one-night only event promises to annihilate all preconceptions about music, theater, and existence.

Startlingly original works, analog synthesis, rap, experimental guitar, mask and shadow-magic, mind-boggling illuminations of Shakespeare and William Blake poems, and potty-mouthed tales of Superman.

Margo Jones Theatre in Fair Park
1121 First Ave. / Dallas TX
