The Annoyance Theatre
Entrails and one-liners fly when fiction's master sleuth and history's most elusive criminal go toe-to-toe in this black comedy set in the foggy slums and extravagant parlors of Victorian London. When a bored, out-of-work Sherlock Holmes is pitted against Jack the Ripper in a battle of wits, he's thrilled to be on the hunt. But even the seasoned pro is in over his head as he realizes that everyone is a suspect...and appearances are rarely what they seem in this bloody whodunnit.

All the Girls Love Bobby Kennedy follows the story of college student Grace Bailey and her experience of the turmoil of the late 1960’s. At that time, for many people Bobby Kennedy was the embodiment of optimism. Here, Kennedy appears as the hopeful side of Grace’s conscience and just the thing she needs to break free of the status quo. While hope builds and life-changing choices are being considered, a war rages on the other side of the world, and one gun shot at a hotel in California is about to stun a generation.
