YOUR MAXIMUM POTENTIAL
4m, 1 non-binary actor
At a boozy brunch, Max’s friends try to convince him to join them at a high profile lifestyle Instagram influencer’s lifestyle coaching sessions. Hesitantly, Max joins his friends on a journey to “self-acceptance.” As the gaggle of gays continue on their journey, they begin to learn that self-aceptance is really a journey about how to get what they want, by any means necessary. And to get what they want, they’ll have to make some sacrifices. Sahil and Darren want a baby. Lucas wants a boyfriend. And Max– who knows what he wants. The group struggles together with their inner desires and their desires to become better people by following the great lifestyle guru, Uriel– as he struggles with a potential health scare.
YOUR MAXIMUM POTENTIAL is a play about the thrall of social media, the examination of queer desires and, most importantly, about how we let the internet change our lives; for better or for worse.

Seneca
4W, 5M
Seneca follows the story of Seneca Village, a town of freed slaves and immigrants in the mid 1800s, that once stood, where now modern day Central Park stands. Bridgette, the town Governess, and her precocious children, are surprised by the mid-day arrival of Rose and Lawrence, a runaway family sent on the Underground Railroad. In present day, a attractive interracial gay couple, Jon and Todd, are headed out on their monthly date to Central Park. The music of the two worlds blend, bend, and collide with one another as the play continues. Seneca is a historical fictive play that explores blackness, freedom, and the ever rising situation of gentrification within many of our cities across America.
