What happens when your best friend decides he likes boys and your girlfriend decides she likes girls? Told in seven scenes that take place over seven years, Keep Your Baggage With You (at all times) examines the devolution of a friendship between two young New York men whose bonds are compromised by the stresses of career, family, relationships, and 21st century sexual mores in a complex digital age in which we ask too many questions, but don't have enough answers.

The cast of Keep Your Baggage With You (at all times) is Dan Abeles, Nate Miler, Laura Ramadei, and Molly Ward.

The set and prop design for Keep Your Baggage With You (at all times) is by Eugenia Furneaux-Arends; costume design is by Tristan Raines; lighting design is by Benjamin Tevelow; sound design is by Nancy Valladares. It is produced by Brian Miskell.
