Don’t Toy With Me by Andrew Black

A chance meeting between G.I. Joe and Ken in the Malibu Barbie Beach House leads to complications when it turns out the two men experience an attraction for one another that Barbie most certainly will not approve of. How will the two resolve their feelings for one another under the watchful eye of one of the most famous blondes in the world?
Are You Busy Tonight? by Russell Ridgeway
Directed by Anthony Nathan with Emerging Artists Theatre
Are you busy tonight? It’s a simple question really. But so much more can be learned, and laughed at, from answers. Especially when the questioner becomes the questioned.
