Kreutzer

Kreutzer is a genre-blending theatrical production that fuses three masterworks—Beethoven’s Kreutzer Sonata, Tolstoy’s incendiary novella The Kreutzer Sonata, and Janáček’s String Quartet Kreutzer Sonata—into a provocative tale of jealousy and redemption. Set aboard a train with no clear beginning or end, the production immerses audiences in a powerful emotional landscape enriched by a haunting score interwoven with music by Shostakovich, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninoff, Ljova, and Tavener.

The Secretary

By: Kyle John Schmidt

Directed By: Brittany Crooke

“The Secretary,” a dark comedy play by Kyle John Schmidt, centers on a small-town gun manufacturer and the community that supports her business. The play follows a group of women, each finding unique ways to cope with their lives using firearms, in a town heavily influenced by the Second Amendment. The story explores themes of gun culture, community, and personal struggles within a tight-knit circle of women.

This production contains depictions of gun violence, including violence in a school and community setting, as well as references to domestic violence. These themes may be distressing to some audience members. Viewer discretion is advised.

By: Lisa Peterson & Denis O’Hare

Directed By: Missy Moore

AN ILIAD is a modern-day retelling of Homer’s classic. Poetry and humor, the ancient tale of the Trojan War, and the modern world collide in this captivating theatrical experience. The setting is simple: the empty theater. The time is now: the present moment. The lone figure onstage is a storyteller—possibly Homer, possibly one of the many bards who followed in his footsteps. He is fated to tell this story throughout history.
