Theatre Roulette: A Festival of New Plays

For the second year in a row, MadLab invites central Ohio theatre audiences to spin the wheel for a random burst of brand new work with the 2001 edition of Theatre Roulette: A Festival of New Plays. Plays include:

Chat Room With God, by Greg McGill, in which a vowel-challenged deity shrs th nswrs t lf’s qstns.

Cheese & Pants Theatre, by Cheese & Pants, in which …well, it simply has to be seen.

The Coffee Shop, by Thomas Nealeigh, in which the ultimate culinary conspiracy theory is brought to light.

Cut and Dried, by Chris Lane, in which old friends become new enemies, and good drugs lead to multiple body-bags.

Feeding Frenzy, by Eric Myers, in which fifteen minutes of potential fame founder in a haze of undead hype.

For the Life of Me, by John Dranschak, in which a seemingly random burglary turns out to be anything but.

I Hate Minivans, by Dan Campanelli & James Christian Jr., in which a man’s obsessive hatred of soccer mom culture leads to its inevitable result–padded walls and tight white suits.

Lo-Fi Radio, by Lesley Jenike, in which way-underground radio plumbs the depths of a DJ’s subconscious.

The Restaurant, by Noell Wolfgram Evans, in which Moses, Elvis, Santa, and Honest Abe wax philosophical over hors d¹oeurvres in the afterlife.

The Staircase Knows, by Janet Overmeyer, in which three hapless conmen are busted by their own worst crime-fighting enemy–themselves (and an annoyingly omniscient set of steps).

Roadkill by Moonlight, by Johnrick Hole, in which seduction, stalking, and squirrel brains mix into a heady roadside stew.
