* CROWNS by Regina Taylor. Hats become a springboard for an exploration of black history and identity in this celebratory musical play. "Taylor pulls off a Hat Trick: She scores thrice, turning CROWNS into an artful amalgamation of oral history, fashion show, and musical theater..." -TheatreMania.com. "...wholly theatrical...Ms. Taylor has created a show that seems to arise out of spontaneous combustion, as if a bevy of department-store customers simultaneously decided to stage a revival meeting in the changing room." -NY Times. [1M, 6W (2 musicians)] ISBN: 0-8222-1963-8
* EXITS AND ENTRANCES by Athol Fugard. The story of a relationship between a young playwright on the threshold of his career and an aging actor who has reached the end of his. [Fugard) can say more with a single line than most playwrights convey in an entire script... Para phrasing the title, it's safe to say this drama, making its memorable entrance into our consciousness, is unlikely to exit as long as a theater exists for exceptional work." -Variety. "A thought-provoking, elegant and engrossing new play..." -Hollywood Reporter. [2M] ISBN: 0-8222-2041-5

* THOM PAIN (BASED ON NOTHING) by Will Eno. An ordinary man muses on childhood, yearning, disappointment and loss, as he draws the audience into his last-ditch plea for empathy and enlightenment.
