\n\nTHE PLAYS: (Some plays contain adult themes) Each play is presented at every performance.
\n\nUnleashed \;by \;Jason Coats (he/him) \;- \;Jax is marching in his first pride parade. It&rsquo\;s also his first time in public with the local pet play community. His nerves get the better of him when he realizes he&rsquo\;s forgotten an important piece of gear and then comes face-to-face with a family member. Will he go home or will he find the courage to march?
\n\nThe Emancipation of Emi \;by \;Pamela C. Hall (she/her) \;- Emi&rsquo\;s friends mean well\, encouraging her to embrace her sexuality and express her affection for a mystery girl. But\, as Emi discovers\, when your friends struggle to understand how you even approach love\, everything is a bit more complicated.
\n\n0 Feet Away \;by \;Ace Lovelace with Steven James (he/him) \;- Making connections is hard enough these days\, but when you add in technology and opposing mystical entities competing for your future\, it can be nearly impossible - even if a potential match is just zero feet away.
\n\nGiving Up \;by \;B. Michael McFarland (he/him) \;- An adopted man is finally getting answers about his birth family\, but the information he learns may not be what he was hoping for.
\n\nThe Fall of House Fabu \;by \;Adam Yarbrough \;- The legendary drag queen and fashion designer Sue Fabu is dead. Who will control her company - and her fortune - next?
