Los Angeles Premiere
Born To Win

Directed by Michael Matthews

Drew Droege and Matt Wilkas star in this Los Angeles premiere! Pinky Corningfield has always dreamed of her daughter winning the “Supreme Queen”.

April 2019
The Secretaries
Los Angeles Premiere
Written by The Five Lesbian Brothers

A killer comedy. The Secretaries chronicles the initiation of Patty Johnson as she lands the job of her dreams at the Cooney Lumber Mill in Big Bone, Oregon. But those dreams turn into bloody nightmares when she discovers the truth her co-workers have been hiding from her! Written 20 years ago, skewering feminist archetypes of the ‘80s and ‘90s, this play is as fresh as if it was written today.
