New show added! Friday, October 15 at 9:30 p.m.

Admission is $5, or, included with admission for Imaginary Letters, Mozart Remembered on Friday, October 15.

Three idiosyncratic characters — an insurance salesman, a volunteer firefighter, and a standardized test instructor — tell of a fatal motorcycle crash on a rural Virginia road. Rapidly switching between interwoven monologues, with vivid details and unexpected points of view, Life Insurance creates a tragicomic world of restless intensity and stubborn hopes.


Second show added, by popular demand!

For one performance only!

Please note, the start time is approximately 9:30 p.m.; Life Insurance will begin after the talkback with Michael White, following the Friday, October 15th performance of Imaginary Letters, Mozart Remembered.
