It's Not Faire - Staged Reading
2025-04-13 12:30 - 15:30
“It’s Not Faire” is a farcical sex-comedy about a SoundCloud rapper/lovable airhead named Tripp who gets a job as a fry cook at the Renaissance Faire to pay for his last year of college after losing his scholarship due to poor grades and lack of motivation. Guided by the memory of his absent father (represented as the ghost of George Washington in drag), he finds himself acting at the Faire in an abridged/audience-participatory production of Hamlet. Thrown into intense Shakespearean dialogue training (and the broken marriage of the production’s diva director and infidel star,) it’s clear that Tripp has bit off more than he can chew, but with two big off-Broadway producers coming to watch the show, Tripp realizes that even his best may not be enough. Will Tripp find something he can succeed at (aside from seducing women), or will his dreams of making his father proud go unanswered?

Julia Masli is an award-winning clown from Estonia, based in London.
All she wants to do is solve people’s problems and eventually win the Nobel Prize, presented to those who have conferred the greatest benefit to humankind. But this plan keeps going wrong as she continually wins prizes for comedy.
It was bad enough when she was the winner of the Malcolm Hardee Award for Comic Originality in 2019 and her debut show ‘Choosh’ – about a migrant’s struggles in the USA – was one of the most acclaimed comedy shows of the Edinburgh Fringe in 2022. But in 2023, things spiralled when she set out to help audience members in ‘ha ha ha ha ha ha ha’, which you can read about in the New York times here.
This serious, important event was nominated for Edinburgh’s top prize of Best Comedy Show and named number one comedy show of the year by the ‘Guardian’, before being invited for a four-week, completely sold-out run at London’s Soho Theatre. Despite the seriousness of Julia’s intentions, the show was once more shortlisted for Most Outstanding Show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival after another total sellout season. From there, it transferred directly to a four-week sold-out run at Soho Playhouse in New York City, and a sold-out run at The Elysian in LA.
Julia has taught at Ecole Philippe Gaulier and at various drama schools in the UK.

T: An MBTA Musical
2025-05-23 21:30
As featured on WBZTV, WGBH, WBUR, Boston25 News and BosToday!
“T” is the journey of three struggling Bostonians whose lives have been derailed by the MBTA’s shortcomings. When they discover a secret map that will let them conquer the T once and for all, they set forth on a colorful journey that is part love story, part melodrama, part scavenger hunt – but mostly underground.
Since 2011, “T” has delighted audiences with our musical “love letter” to the city of Boston. Join us this Spring as we sing and dance our way around everything we love to hate about the MBTA.
