What if pop culture of one era evolved into the mythology of another? Disaster has struck, the world is in darkness, and in the after math, a group of survivors gather around a campfire and begin to piece together the plot of “The Simpsons” episode “Cape Feare” entirely from memory. Seven years later, this and other snippets of pop culture have become the live entertainment of a post-apocalyptic society, sincerely trying to hold onto its past. Seventy-five years later, these are the myths and legends from which new forms of performance are created.

Who’s that knocking on the door? Nora is back in this audacious comedy. It’s been 15 years since she slammed that same door on her marriage and children in the revolutionary final scene of Ibsen’s 1879 ground-breaking masterwork. Now a successful yet scandalous writer, she’s being blackmailed by a judge and needs her former husband’s help. But her family has a few grievances they need to air first. A blistering and very funny meditation on marriage and the high cost of personal fulfillment.

Do fences make good neighbors? In this brilliant new comedy, cultures and gardens clash, turning well- intentioned neighbors into feuding enemies. Pablo, a rising attorney and doctoral candidate, and Tania, his very pregnant wife, are realizing the American dream when they purchase a house next door to Frank and Virginia, a well-established D.C. couple with a prize-worthy English garden. But a delicate disagreement over a long- standing fence line soon spirals into an all-out border dispute, exposing both couples’ notions of race, taste, class and privilege. The hilarious results guarantee no one comes out smelling like a rose.
