+ ALICE
AN EPIC LOVE STORY featuring two lifelong lovers, who move in and out of each other's lives and are joined by two mysterious narrators who weave their own mystical tales. Shakey Jake and Alice are just two human beings, who are born, die, live, love, get lost, get found. Jenkins' tale serves up live music, a lot of get down, and maybe, a little magic.

TINA HOWE'S LAST PLAY tracks the journey of Zilla, a recently widowed New Yorker whose seemingly mundane daily routine is broken up by a visit to a dermatologist when an herb garden begins to sprout from her legs. She meets her friend at her new favorite lunch spot: Subway. Final stop, a mesmerizing street vendor, fixated by the city’s pageantry of plurality.
The play features spontaneous group singing, bizarre food, a zither, a silent man wearing a parachute, and an awakening from absurdity to abundance, kindness to connection.
