Artistic Director Matthew Posey debuts an original dark comedy with music, PATTI & THEO, the third installment of the 2023-24 season, opening May 1. Mr. Posey authors and directs the story of Patti and Theo, struggling artists in Brooklyn, New York.

Booze plays an outsized role in their daily existence. In fact, time will tell if they survive the drinking religion. You’ll wade into the boozy waters of the couple’s nightmarish world and witness the unraveling of their lives as they try one last time to love each other. Original music and shadow-play complement this story of two lovers who hold each other passionately at arm’s length.
