UglyRhino announces that additional performances have been added to their 3rd Annual Micro-Season at The Brooklyn Lyceum, September 6th, 7th, and 8th at 8pm. UglyRhino's 2012 micro-season places mainstage plays at the heart of a larger artistic celebration, providing a variety of events on any given evening. What results is a social experience you can't find in your traditional theater setting. The third annual micro-season will focus on music, surrounding the two entirely new musical plays developed by the UglyRhino team, with live bands, two free curated cocktails, and a DJ after party following Friday night performances.

TinyRhino is UglyRhino's take on the ten-minute play evening. Each month UglyRhino commissions six short plays, 'each including the same five dramatic elements. On the night of the performance, these elements are revealed to the audience as cues to drink. That's right: we've created a theatrical drinking game!'

UglyRhino announces casting for their produtions of The Awakening and GLAMDROMEDA, which will take place this August at The Brooklyn Lyceum.

Sex, guns, cigarettes and senile agitation, this short play festival is inspired by classic print ads that are actually a bit shocking.
