Our new world premier show, "U Up?," examines dating, sex, and relationships in the age of social media. This two-person show, created by and starring Mark Kendall and Alison Hastings, uses comedy, drama, and movement in a fast-paced, sketch format. From first dates, to awkward music choices, to late-night bootie calls, to sexting- "U Up?" Satirizes love in the digital age.

This show takes the things that make you go "oooh" and makes you go "huh?" And it takes the things that make you go "wha?" and makes you go "hubba hubba." And of course, there will be plenty of sweet tunes and dance moves.

Mark Kendall premiered his one-man-show "The Magic Negro and Other Blackness" at Dad's Garage in 2014, which went on to receive a Reiser Lab Grant from the ALLIANCE THEATRE. He was also voted "Best Professional Funnyman" by the readers of Creative Loafing. Alison Hastings has been voted "Best Local Actress" by the readers of Creative Loafing. "U Up?" will be their first show as a duo.
