On Stage Now
2024-2025 Season
When an unanticipated attraction develops between two friends which ignites a response so violent it nearly kills them, one struggles to survive as the other tries to pick up the pieces. Stop Kiss by Diana Son is a quirky yet moving play of self-discovery, tolerance and love in a sometimes-unforgiving world. (This play contains mature themes: discrimination, sexual content and adult language.)
