Thieves follows a dysfunctional family in East Texas through a time of wrenching upheaval and transition. When the family matriarch dies, three siblings return to the run-down estate where they grew up and are joined by their estranged father for some kind of remembrance and farewell. It's not long before bare nerves are exposed and deep wounds are reopened as they hoard possessions and wrestle with the emotional legacy that made up the life and love of their mother.
The cast of Thieves includes MacLeod Andrews, Chris Bellant, Addie Johnson, Sarah Shaefer, Samantha Soule, and John Wojda. Additional credits include scenery by Deb O, costumes by Tristan Raines, lighting by Kia Rogers, sound by Jake Rodriguez, projections designed by Kaitlyn Pietras, fight choreography by Mike Mahaffey, and key dialect coaching by Victoria Hanlin.The regular performance schedule for Thieves is as follows: Thursdays through Saturdays at 8:00pm, and matinees on Saturdays and Sundays at 3:00pm.
