We don't want to grow up!  We are toys and games kids!

DEADLINES

Friday, March 22, 2024

at Vokes Theater, 97 Boston Post Rd., Wayland, MA
Directed by Gail Bishop Nessman and Kevin Nessman

​

Sooooo, we were given a date by which to write a description for this show, and we starred the email request for it, but then it sank below the “fold” of our Inbox, so we forgot about it. Then we remembered, but procrastinated, because who likes writing these things, amiright? Then we realized we really should do it and felt guilty that we hadn’t done it yet, and then got really stressed about it—what should it say?!?! Finally, we just wrote this little blurb and felt enormous relief once we hit the Send button. I mean, we should have just done it right away ‘cause when we actually sat down to write it, it only took a few minutes. Anyway, Acme Improv Company...Improv Comedy...theme is Deadlines!...another fundraiser for ACME Theater. That's good enough, isn't it? You get it, right?

 

THE COLLEGE YEARS
Friday, May 24, 2024

at Vokes Theater, 97 Boston Post Rd., Wayland, MA
Directed by Kate Forrestall

 

Ah, college life! It was the best of times. It was the haziest of times. Oh wait, is that just us? So, try not to wake your sleeping roommate (do they ever wake up??), grab your term paper (it was due last week), stop by the dining hall, and meet us in the quad to play some hacky sack and reminisce about all things university life. We'll remember what it was like to experience your first taste of freedom, declare a major, make some lasting friendships, oh and also get some (higher) education. Unlike most college experiences, this show won't cost you thousands of dollars in student loans!
