Directed by Wendy C. Goldberg

Cast: Ali Rose Dachis as Jeannie, Bobby Moreno as Chuck, Sean Mellott as Ian & Ben Morrow as Zander

Four 20-somethings struggle to transition from college to a “real” life that is rarely spent outside the glare of the video game monitors in their Las Vegas basement. What they find is a world of grown-up relationships that require levels of intimacy far beyond the social shield of technology. When one member of the circle is recruited by the NSA to pilot remote missiles, he’s ill-equipped to handle the moral ambiguities raised in this thought-provoking and often humorous world premiere about a generation straddling the fuzzy line between reality and virtual reality.

*Member of Actors’ Equity Association

The legend of the gridiron comes to life on stage. 1965, and cub reporter Michael McCormick has been assigned to follow the Green Bay Packers’ winning coach. Hoping to discover what makes Vince Lombardi so successful, he uncovers Lombardi the man—husband, father, bully and friend—full of passion and drive without equal. As McCormick explores Lombardi’s relationships with his wife and players, he finds the coach to be a perfectionist whose every breath is football, and a source of inspiration with a few surprises of his own.

How far would you go for your child? For Genevra and Joshua Bradley, the question is no longer hypothetical.
