Home, I'm Darling by Laura Wade
What happens when retro dreams collide with modern realities?

But when the pressure of maintaining her vintage fantasy begins to crack, Judy must confront the cost of living in an idealized past.

Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike by Christopher Durang
A stage play. Step into the hilariously dysfunctional world of Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike, Christopher Durang’s Tony Award-winning comedy that’s equal parts cheeky, chaotic, and deeply heartfelt! In a quiet Pennsylvania farmhouse, Vanya and his adopted sister Sonia lead a dull, humdrum existence—until their glamorous, larger-than-life movie star sister Masha storms in with her boy toy Spike in tow. Add a soothsaying housekeeper and a neighborhood ingénue to the mix, and what follows is a wild ride of sibling rivalries, fading dreams, and over-the-top antics. Will Masha sell the family home? Will Spike keep his shirt on? Will Sonia ever find true happiness—or at least a date? Come for the biting wit, stay for the absurd Chekhovian twists, and leave with a grin on your face. Drama, comedy, and a touch of existential dread. This play has it all.
