Bake-Off
By Sheri Wilner, Directed by Scott Ogle

As an Alaskan snowstorm rages outside, there is a desperate knocking on Henry Harry's cabin door. He opens it to find a beautiful woman, dressed in nothing but her sweat-stained bridal gown. Thus begins a beautifully crafted one-act play about a man and a woman who meet in the middle of nowhere, and are attracted and repulsed by turns as they undertake an incredibly passionate journey within the symbolic confines of a lonely cabin.

Five Nickels

Meet Ed Maloney, middle-aged, single and shy. He's a Catholic usher and, on this particular Sunday, he is confronted by Catherine Barber, a 50-something widow who, after weeks of holding back, has finally determined to confront this lifelong bachelor with her true feelings - feelings which she has been expressing weekly in the church hallway in a very special, very subtle way.

Bake-Off

An uproarious comedy set on the cooking floor of the Pillsbury Bake-Off, Bake-Off mixes all the right ingredients for a laugh-out loud satire on gender roles.

Brilliant Traces and Five Nickels runs approximately one-hour, while Bake-Off is approximately 20-minutes in length. There will be an intermission.
