Ten years have passed since Brent and Andy confessed their secrets to one another. Brent drifts from one small town to the next playing piano and lecturing while Andy, his high school crush, secretly follows him. The play shifts from past to present to reveal how the boys' relationship caused Andy's father, Mark, to become obsessed with secrets Brent may or may not be keeping.

In funny, moving, engaging monologues, three sisters spin the tale of their family and an era. Their father, the eponymous carpetbagger, was a former Union soldier who used his post as county treasurer and tax collector to amass a Texas plantation of twenty thousand acres. Preserving that plantation through the vicissitudes of their lives becomes a central issue for his daughters, Cornelia, Grace Anne and Sissie. With echoes of The Three Sisters and King Lear, The Carpetbagger's Children explores the bonds of a family to the land that has shaped their identity, influenced their destiny and, like the family itself, undergone dramatic change with the passage of time.

"...bittersweet music-[a] rhapsody of ambivalence... in its modest, garrulous way, [the play] is theatrically daring." -The New Yorker

Deep in the woods of Illinois, three childhood friends come together for their annual hunting trip. Now middle-aged, divided by their changing political attitudes, and facing mortality in a number of guises, they find that the common fabric of friendship has been shredded by time.

"Wright writes crackling dialogue peppered with meaningful pauses and likely to take unsettling turns. And while his stories take on major issues, he has us view them through a darkly comic and very personal lens..." - CurtainUp

In Gina Gionfriddo's Becky Shaw, a newlywed couple fixes up two romantically challenged friends: wife's best friend, meet husband's sexy and strange new co-worker. When an evening calculated to bring happiness takes a dark turn, crisis and comedy ensue in this wickedly funny play that asks what we owe the people we love and the strangers who land on our doorstep.

"...scathing, class-conscious comedy...BECKY SHAW exerts a hypnotic pull, thanks in large part to the wonderfully witty dialogue and complex characterizations." - NY Post

"The perfect nourishment for theatergoers starved for a dramatic conflagration or two... Gionfriddo's creations talk with rat-tat-tat ferocity... the laughs flow freely." - Associated Press.

Bess Krumblin, the wealthiest widow in town, has grand plans for the family fortune: to sink it all into a massive arts foundation, and transform the region into a "cultural mecca." Soon everyone wants a slice of the funding pie, including her greedy children, harebrained advisors, government cronies, and every would-be artist/actor/dancer/painter/musician/ in the area. All played by Tom and Joe, of course.
