Cast Set for NIGHTSWEAT at The SigPro Studio

In June, Significant Productions will present Nightsweat - By Natalie Symons - as the first summer production ever to grace its brand new stage, at The SigPro Studio. Performances will run from June 16 - Aug 8, 2026.

Britney Cox, a washed-up actress has been canceled on social media! To hide from the haters her anxious young assistant, Maude Bender, has booked a girl's murder mystery weekend at a Berkshires Airbnb. Joining the fun is Tawny Fitzsimmons, a tired mom, and ex-cop and security detail Dale James. Comic mania ensues when the girl's weekend goes awry. Between pipe bombs, appliances that don't work, slashed tires, a mysterious landlady, and news of a serial killer hunting "pre-elderly women," what more could go wrong? "Bridesmaids" meets "Friday the 13th" in Natalie Symons' hilarious new farce, Nightsweat, as it pokes fun at wokeness, Florida, pronouns, Ozempic, white privilege, "don't say gay," horror movie tropes, fake news, and, of course, Hall & Oats. Book your stay at McCurdy's Haunted Airbnb where murder, mayhem, and belly laughs are behind every door.
