THE WICKED ONE

By Lisa Sanaye Dring

Directed by Rebecca Wear

Monday, June 17th at 8pm

Atwater Village Theatre

The story of a mother faced with a brutal decision. Based on a true story out of Rosemead, California, a terminal cancer diagnosis forces a first-generation Laotian immigrant to confront her son's schizophrenia. The Wicked One explores the piercing isolation experienced by single mothers, the shame around mental illness that often plagues Asian families, and the heft of having to carry your culture with you in a foreign land.


HOMOS, OR EVERYONE IN AMERICA

By Jordan Seavey

Directed by Michael Michetti

Monday, June 24th at 8pm

Atwater Village Theatre

"Love is love" - but is navigating it any less complicated today? What does it mean to be in a committed relationship? Is monogamy just monotony? Told through interweaving glimpses into the life of an everyday couple unexpectedly confronted by a vicious crime, Homos, Or Everyone In America is a fearless, funny, heart-on- its-sleeve examination of the moments that can bring two people together - or pull them apart.
