“RADIO HOUR EPISODE 17: SHERLOCK HOLMES AND THE FINAL PROBLEM” by Matthew Ivan Bennett in the Jeanne Wagner Theatre *

You will help us prepare for our “live studio audience” for two live broadcasts of RADIO HOUR on KUER’s RadioWest for the first time in a decade. // What if Dr. Watson was a woman and Sherlock Holmes wasn’t always right? // On the run from Moriarty, the keenest criminal mind they’ve ever faced, Holmes is unsure of his powers, and Watson is unsure of him. // Featuring Doug Fabrizio (returning to the role of Sherlock Holmes that he first played in 2012), Jay Perry, & Isabella Reeder.

“BALTHAZAR” by Debora Threedy in the Studio Theatre *

Portia is a noblewoman in 16th century Venice. She wants to be a lawyer, but that profession is reserved for men. Her cousin Bellario, a doctor of law, won’t teach her. Her husband Bassanio is in serious legal trouble … and he’s in love with his best friend Antonio. Things are not going well. What’s a girl to do? // 1. Create an alter ego (enter Balthazar). 2. Trick Bellario. 3. Represent Antonio (and Bassanio) in court. // This riff on Shakespeare’s “The Merchant of Venice” is a life-and- death journey through the law, love, and gender identity. / Fearturing Jason Bowcutt & Lily Hye Soo Dixon.

“BITTER LEMON” by Melissa Leilani Larson in the Studio Theatre *

Finlay Macbeth has done Lady Helen Macduff a terrible wrong. Now they are trapped, alone together, in a purgatorial waiting room. // Sometimes the only escape is forgiving the unforgivable? // This riff on Shakespeare’s “Macbeth” is a life-after-death journey through the strange, the empty, and everything in-between. // Featuring Bobby Cody & Yolanda Stange.

OPTIONAL ADD-ON: “SQUEAK” by Tito Livas, various locations

Add-on a public performance of our 11th annual Free Elementary School Tour that will serve K-3 students at elementary schools statewide between September 2023 and May 2024. // Squeak’s brain moves at warp speed. Sometimes that makes it hard to connect with other kids. And sometimes it’s hard for grown-ups to understand. // A journey across the spectrum, complete with dinosaurs, Dragon Breaths, and a new friend. // Featuring Wendy Joseph & Alec Kalled and Niki Rahimi & Taylor Wallace.
