13TH GRADE is a musical comedy about a bunch of kids in community college figuring out life, lessons and love during the year 1998.

BEST ENSEMBLE nominated Ripley tells stories of young women coming of age against a dystopian backdrop. Like the heroines of Hunger Games and Divergent, the women of DYSTOPIA fight oppressive powers. Ripley improvises one hour original plays based on your suggestions. No script, no planning, no net.

From the creators of THUG TUNNEL comes the original musical TURBULENCE!, a fast and farcical race through space. The 4242 Intergalympics are finally here, and it’s up to the crew of the S.S. Albacore to prove that Earth isn’t the shabby dirt turd the Martians think it is. Ready. Set. Space!

An outrageous slapstick ensemble musical comedy about getting through your mid 20’s. Watch them deal with the anxieties and complexities of life after college; Broadway style. With dancing ovarian eggs, evil creditors, tinder dates, and insane acting teachers.

William Shakespeare's final play performed with an all female cast and set in a modern penitentiary.

South-Asian writer/performer Rasika Mathur brings the "model minority" stereotype to its knees, demonstrating how undetected lifelong mental issues wreak havoc on an otherwise talented, intelligent girl hustling in Hollywood. But it's a comedy!

Memories play and stray in this new solo show. Backstage at a drag show, Auntie, an old diva, teaches a newbie her fabulous lineage, from ancient times to current affairs, a resilient race of glitter, tucking and throat throttling reality. Auntie’s endowment: a birthright. Her stories: hysterical.

Joe & Joshua are BACK! Voted 2017 Top Ten by Stage Raw: "The writing in the show is sharp, satirical, and often incisive, providing both laughs and food for thought." Joe Hernandez-Kolski & Joshua Silverstein combine comedy, poetry, beatboxing, rap w/revealing storytelling to create a fun show!

In this shockingly hilarious show, Kate presents 2 decades of living w/an OCD-instilled eating disorder that requires her to live by a strict set of rules rooted in numbers and eternal body hatred. Obsessions, neuroticism, and negative self-talk abound, giving us all a chance to laugh at ourselves.

Can single mom Haley create her dream man with the law of attraction or will her creation turn into a lusty cupcake monster? Can a homefree street shaman trust a feisty woman named Wanda with his concrete "temple" on Venice Beach? The answers lie within and with these 2 comedies.

What happens when a detail-obsessed woman tries to time the birth of her child to occur during her favorite month of the year? Nine months of chaos – in utero and out! A 60-minute solo show, October Baby is a hilarious and poignant look at motherhood and the need to control. Note: NO LATE SEATING.

2017 ENCORE Producer's Award Winner! Plate scraping. Christmas with the in-laws. Milk. No normal person enjoys these things, but we're not normal. Come cringe at Fringe with Flat Tire's anthology series of cringe-worthy moments.
