In a shabby New England motel, 3 members of a NY theatre group have arrived with a scheme. As the evening darkens and unravels...so do their ambitions and secrets. This dark comedy--from Pulitzer-nominee Adam Rapp (Red Light Winter, Nocturne) is a visceral, provocative, oddball piece about a group of artists desperately trying to force a place for themselves, and how far they will go to get what they want. This West-Coast premiere marks the debut of Rogue Machine's ?Off the Clock,' a late-night series of bold, taut, intoxicating theatrical concoctions for the artistically daring crowd.

A bold, irreverent romp through 37 of Shakespeare's plays in just 99 minutes, The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) is a wildly comic valentine to the Bard.
