  • How I Learned (Not) To Drive

    How I Learned (NOT) To Drive, directed by Indie Theatre Hall of Fame director Padriac Lilis, deals with the very true story of a 40-year-old Florida man overcoming his lifelong fear of the open road and getting his driver’s license in a desperate attempt to save his marriage. It’s like a live-action version of the Fast & Furious, but funnier, more anxious, and only 60 minutes.

  • Witch With Her Skirt On Fire

    Witch with Her Skirt on Fire is a one woman show inspired by pagan storytelling and witches of all kinds. These original stories follow the pagan mythos of the maiden, mother, and crone while exploring heartbreak, growth, and magic. These witchy tall tales weave together generational stories into an intersectional queer feminine tapestry. Storyteller Megan Markham, Orlando Story Club winner and longtime Fringe producer/writer, is excited to be bringing her first solo storytelling piece on tour.
