Experience one of the greatest finds of the
20th Century as a professor and his young
assistant, surviving amongst jungle creatures
and cannibals on an uncharted Pacific
island, find the legendary aviator living
as a semi-amnesiatic jungle woman. When
this discovery is brought back to America’s
industrial elite, it ignites a dangerous showdown
of business and politics that puts everyone
involved at risk.
FRAT
SPRING 2009
Based on true stories, FRAT brings to life the
bizarre, frightening and secretive American
sub-culture of Southern fraternities: the
breeding grounds for politicians, journalists,
movie stars, and even presidents. With
each intense recreation from life, the allure
of this uniquely American experience
becomes palpable and defines those who
survive and thrive because of it, and those
who are beaten down.
Tupperware:
An American Musical Fable
SUMMER 2009
Dolores, a young widow in 1950 longing for her independence, is disrupted from her plans to move from Florida when opportunity knocks at her front door. Literally. Suddenly, Dolores finds herself selling a few hours of independence to the women on her cul de sac in the form of Tupperware. As her success spirals out of control, it gives birth to heated neighborhood politics, the loss of her own freedom to the empire she is helping build, and a movement that changed the face of the American dinner table forever.
