The 2025 Andy Bro New Work Commission

A World Premiere by Alexander Sage Oyen & Tommy Ranieri

Join us for the hilarious and heartfelt world premiere of a new comedy set right here in Carroll County! When a scandal lands a once-beloved comedian in court, she's given an ultimatum: prison or parole in her rural hometown, working to save the family glue factory formerly run by her departed relatives. Initially a reluctant publicity stunt, her return soon becomes an uproarious journey about finding your spotlight in a one stoplight town. Featuring music by acclaimed composer Alexander Sage Oyen and a charmingly comedic book co-written by Artistic Director Tommy Ranieri, this show is a delightful reminder that second chances often stick where you least expect them.
