"JACK IN A BOX" won Best Web Series at the 2010 New York Television Festival. The series launched in July 2009 and quickly built an impressive fanbase of theatre enthusiasts, professionals and box office workers around the country. Season One focused primarily on Jack's life inside the box, while Season Two found him leaving the box office job and quickly realizing he was always going to be in a "box" of some sort. Season Three will give be a culmination of both seasons, seeing Jack balance his personal life and work life at the same time...or try to.

"JACK IN A BOX" is an original web sitcom from actor/writer Michael Cyril Creighton. Jack was a mild-mannered young man with a BFA in acting and no life skills. He took a job at a theater box office because it didn't involve heavy lifting, wearing a blazer or using Excel. A few years and thousands of customers later, Jack finds himself less mild-mannered and less young than ever before. Watch Jack try to manage his anger while navigating an insular universe where everyone is even more unstable than he is. Like all caged animals, he is going to throw his sh*t at you sooner or later... but first he's going to eat a cupcake and take a phone call from his mom. Service with a smirk, that's all you can ask for.

Some past guest stars from Seasons One & Two have included theatre favorites Hannah Bos (The Debate Society, "The Mimi & Flo Show"), Marylouise Burke (Is He Dead?, Fuddy Meers, HBO's "Hung"), Beth Cole (Jack Goes Boating), Nat DeWolf (Take Me Out, Betty's Summer Vacation), Alison Fraser (The Divine Sister, Gypsy, The Secret Garden), Randy Harrison (Wicked, "Queer As Folk"), Patrick Heusinger (Next Fall, "Royal Pains", "Gossip Girl"), Jackie Hoffman (The Addams Family, Xanadu, Hairspray) and Mary Testa (Xanadu, Guys and Dolls, On The Town, 42nd Street).

The series is co-produced and co-directed by Creighton and Jim Turner.
