In Between
People have options to affect change in their own lives and the lives of others. Cue is a student who feels pressured to choose between 2 types of friendships: one with a popular student and one with a loner. She learns both friends have similar problems, and in an act of true friendship, she reaches out to help. A provocative catalyst for a discussion about the identities and emotions that can complicate decision making, this play examines peer disrespect, self-esteem and social pressure to conform.

Peacemaker
The Blue People and Red People have lived on either side of the Wall for decades. The two communities have been kept apart, and rumors of mistrust have abounded for years. When Red Person, Simp, encounters his first Blue Person, he is confused about how to react and interact. What unfolds is an engaging story about our increasingly diverse society and a message encouraging an end to suspicion, mistrust and prejudice amongst people of different backgrounds.

New Kid
He's just arrived in America from "Homeland," and Nick is discovering the wonders of baseball and cheeseburgers, but also the realities of prejudice against people from other countries. Unable to speak English or understand American food, music or sports, Nick has to adapt to a new language and unfamiliar culture. He encounters a conflict on his first day in school with the resident bully, Mug. But Nick isn't discouraged. He practices tolerance by helping his family adapt to American culture and gains enough confidence in his English-speaking skills to approach Mug.
