Extra Dry – MICHELLE RENEE JOHNSON

What lengths would you go to to be remembered? Would you give up your memories for the sake of the story? This autobiographical solo show brings the audience through the journey of a young woman who finds solace in alcohol when she realizes others tend to enjoy her company more when she is drunk. The main character soon has to weigh if the damage she is doing to herself–and others–is worth it for the entertainment of the stories that live on long after the night is over.

Kenny Reilly Plays Spikeball By Himself For Ten Minutes – KENNY REILLY

Through a clown inspired performance, Kenny’s Ego and Id will compete against each other to see who will win, within ten minutes. Expected themes include loneliness, youth sports, and absolutely buffoonery. Match point.
