"Harold Thenderbee’s ‘The Debut’" by Luke Rowe
Welcome to Thenderbee’s newest, most boring piece yet–so mundane, so shockingly average, it shall replace his entire theatrical catalogue and become his Debut. A showcasing of Chekhovian like vignettes without all the interpersonal drama, you’ll be treated to images such as: ‘Father lays the table for dinner’, ‘Boy Child learns chess’, and ‘Grandmother has passed away (but it’s okay because she was quite old and we’re all at peace with it really)’.
"Real Clown" by Neurodynamic Theatrics
"Real Clown" is a comedy with a lot of heart. It's a lesson in the power of community and the power of words. It's based on true events (though some names have been changed and creative liberties taken) and follows the story of Roberta Rainbow and her journey of self-acceptance as she learns what it takes to be a "real" clown.
