Chaos reigns in this ensemble satire about the trappings of technology, brand-allegiance, and science-gone-amok! Jules (Nabilah Ahmed, Waning), an MIT dropout with a chip on her shoulder, has just arrived for her first day of a lucrative internship at ACME: world-famous manufacturer of all things necessary. With every new face she meets, Jules falls deeper into the machinations of ACME and its peculiar past. Undeterred, Jules charges headfirst into the weird unknown. The question is: will she survive long enough to see day two?

Sound Theatre Company has announced its 2014 season of plays, to run from May 28 to September 27. Artistic Director Teresa Thuman has chosen three Seattle premieres that examine The Language of Love and Hate.

Sound Theatre Company launches its seventh season with a seldom-performed pair of works by Tom Stoppard, Dogg's Hamlet, Cahoot's Macbeth. Stoppard's smart, witty and gleeful word-play combines a thought experiment from Ludwig Wittgenstein with repression of art in the Soviet Eastern bloc to illuminate the power that language has in our world.

GreenStage, Seattle's longest-operating Shakespeare company, celebrates its 25th season in 2013 with two of the Bard's favorites for the summer Shakespeare in the Park season, and a new Backyard Bard series of scaled-down productions for smaller parks and other venues.

As always, GreenStage performances will be absolutely free of charge. Go see a play!

You may think that you know Tennessee Williams, but you don't. Stone Soup Theatre presents 5 X TENN (OR SO), selected one acts published after the death of one of America's most treasured playwrights. It's been five years since Stone Soup Theatre produced the west coast premiere of 5 X TENN, (directed by Julie Beckman) to both audience and critical acclaim. Now, to satisfy the hunger of Williams' fans, Stone Soup offers up 5 X TENN (OR SO), six seldom produced one acts, that will transport us to a post-apocalyptic dystopian society with Chalky White Substance; take us to a flooded New Orleans (eerily reminiscent of the 2005 Hurricane Katrina) in Kingdom of Earth; and encounter the dangers, both hidden and obvious, of a fascist regime in The Municipal Abattoir. In addition, equally prophetic, provocative, and confrontational pieces will seduce and shock you: Talk to Me Like the Rain, Sunburst, and The Big Game.

Will Eno's 2005 Pulitzer-Finalist Play Thom Pain (based on nothing) a one-man show directed by Gianni Truzzi, will be performed twice in February at the historic Bathhouse on Green Lake.

First off let me say that the language in this is difficult at best to get through. And no, I don't mean coarse language (although there's plenty of that too) but the Irish accents and regional terms. Fortunately Sound Theatre Company's current production of "Disco Pigs" is being performed by two gifted actors who manage to wade through the accents and come out the other side with an engaging tale.

From the Tony Award-winning writer of Once comes Disco Pigs, a coming-of-age story that's anything but sweet. Teenagers Pig and Runt share everything: a birthday, secrets, and a darkness in their souls. But as they face adulthood, their dreams for the future will rip them apart.

Sound Theatre Company has announced a special partnership with the Teen Writers programs of Richard Hugo House forits upcoming 'Making Waves' production of Disco Pigs.

I don't think many would disagree when I say Tony Kushner is one of theater's most incredible playwrights with his amazing gift for language. And his adaptation of Pierre Corneille's 17th century tale "The Illusion" is no different with its poetic dialogue and gloriously surreal arc from melodramatic to stark truth. And Sound Theatre Company's production of this magical piece, for the most part, understands and delivers the beauty of that arc.
