RENTERS IN EXILE
the ARE WE FREE YET? project
AngelPirate Productions presents:
the Are We Free Yet? project
based on the book by Tina Strawn
curated, written & directed by TS Hawkins
(Director of Education at Theatre Exile)
Two Performances: 10/5 @ 1:30pm and 7:00pm
Through sound and verse, we sojourn in an afro-future encapsulated within a Sunday dinner unpacking decades and dynasties of epigenetic memories. Will the future ever progress against the past? Sauté and serenade with ANTIQUITY and DESTINEÉ as they prepare a table of life, love, and a longing to still be free.
LILITH AND HER DEMONS
Lilith and Her Demons
Adapted from Lilith and Her Demons by Enid Dame
Created by Apartment 20
Music and Lyrics by Sarah Norcross
Directed by Randi Alexis Hickey
(General Manager at Theatre Exile)
Arrangements & Music Direction by Damien Figueras
09/02 @ 7:00pm ($15.00 Admission)
In this modern-folk song cycle we meet the mythological she-demon, Lilith, in a hotel room after a one night stand with her cab driver. She's on the run, from herself and the demons she seems to create wherever she goes. How many lifetimes do we have to live before we get to see our redemption story through? Join us for a concert presentation of this piece in development.
Em3ry / MW Entertainment (SUMMER READING SERIES)
Produced by Theatre Exile’s own Director of Operations, Darnelle Radford!
Em3ry / MW Entertainment are bringing one play and one musical to our 2024 Summer Reading Series!
FUN WITH JANE, a musical comedy
By Perri Gaffney, Stanley Harrison & Mitch Weiss
Jane is between a rock and a hard place. Tragic in love, she refuses to get involved again, but her new boss and recent promotion break down her defenses. Her first assignment gets her in deep trouble when she convinces two rich and powerful women to secretly use insider trading to raise $100 million dollars for their children's charity. Praise from her billionaire boss intoxicates her until she is threatened by a corrupt SEC agent. And then all hell breaks loose.
VAGABOND: by Matthew Ethan Davis
By Matthew Ethan Davis
Set in a shoemaker's shop in 1856 Pennsylvania, 3 craftsmen battle the advancing Industrial Revolution, challenged by notions of gay love and sexuality. Their lives are turned upside down by the arrival of a charmingly handsome stranger.

Two women meet, talk over drinks and it turns out they’re the same person. A riddle? Yes.
You’re more likely to win the lottery than come face to face with your double. So, if you wonder on which side of the table you sit, consider carefully: Is that your doppelgänger? Or are your sides in conflict, and is that some slice of yourself you hoped would stay away?
Are you about to be further severed, sectioned and separated or joined in bliss or maybe hell? What’s to be gained if you could know yourself? On the other side of your dreams and musings, is there more and is there someone else?
Q: Are you wondering whether you’ll laugh or cry?
A: This play is no joke, but you’ll laugh out loud. And it will touch you.
