Jo, a stay-at-home mom and struggling writer is offered an unusual deal for her memoir: she has to make her life exciting enough to publish. As mysterious and even sinister events start happening to her, Jo has to decide how far she is willing to go to make her life into art, and whether it's all coincidence or if someone is determined to make sure her memoir is a best-seller at any cost.


Minneapolis/St. Paul

By Lee Blessing
Directed by Jennifer A. Skinner
Sunday, July 16, 7pm
Atwater Village Theatre
With Kate Morgan Chadwick, Will Collyer, Edmund Entin, Doug Sutherland

A writer of murder mysteries is married to a woman in Minneapolis. At the same time, he's married--as a woman--to a man in St. Paul. This meta-theatrical journey into questions of gender identity and sexual preference forces him, and us, to examine more crimes than one.

Circle X Theatre Co. is supported by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors through the Los Angeles County Arts Commission, the Department of Cultural Affairs City of Los Angeles, Capital Group Companies, the National Endowment for the Arts, Kinetic Lighting, inc., and hundreds of individual donors.

Circle X Theatre Co. is a not-for-profit ensemble of artists dedicated to highly provocative, boldly theatrical productions of new and rarely-seen plays and the development of new works for the stage. We believe in imagination over budget, adrenaline over inertia, irreverence over convention and excellence over all.
