THE WAFFLE PALACE: SMOTHERED, COVERED AND SCATTERED  24/7/365
by Larry Larson & Eddie Levi Lee
Directed by Jeff & Lisa Adler
Monday, March 26 at 7:30 PM

From births to marriages to police chases and lottery wins, anything can happen at 3 AM in the Waffle Palace. Inspired by amazing real life events at Waffle House restaurants, Larson and Lee let loose with this roller coaster of humor, music, and imagination in which John Picket and his multi-racial staff battle to keep their Midtown diner open against heavy odds. The Waffle Palace: where everyone is welcome and the only unforgivable sins are throwing waffles and under-tipping.

You gotta be crazy to turn 40, but Steph and Kathleen are about to do just that. In an effort to stave off the inevitable, they head to Pensacola determined to wind up in bed with a Blue Angels pilot. Sex, hilarity, and heart--what more could you ask for on your least favorite birthday?

UPRISING
by Gabrielle Fulton
Directed by Jade Lambert-Smith
Monday, April 9 at 7:30 PM

When Sal discovers a hypnotic revolutionary hiding in the brush, her life is turned upside down by his strong affection and the trouble on his tracks. Set during the aftermath of John Brown’s Raid, Uprising is a historical drama that challenges our notion of freedom.
