When Asaf’s student asks him to sign a manifesto condemning police brutality, he wants to help — until he realizes the petition says more than he’s ready to stand behind. As the debate roars through his Midwestern campus and his ex-girlfriend takes the lead, Asaf is pulled into a political storm that tests his convictions and his sense of self. Will his fumbling entrée into activism help or hurt the cause? The Ally, a darkly funny and deeply human new play by Itamar Moses (The Band’s Visit, Completeness), asks us: just whose side are you on?

Sven Svensen and Ole Olsen have been best buds since kindergarten, but all that changes on the morning of Ole’s ice-fishing bachelor party. Could they be something more than friends, or is Sven destined for something even more wild and strange. This fantasia on Midwestern masculinity invites us to consider the limits of Queerness. Dream ballet included.

At the fulcrum point between composition and improvisation, this concert features music by New York iconoclasts Ginka Mizuki and Gene Pritsker. One part Jazz, one part Classical, shaken by Rock n Roll, with a twist of theater, this 90-minute program of new art music is lots of fun.

Set in 1850s Dublin, this temperamental play centers on the life of Hannah, an idealistic Quaker woman who's work with the poor is funded by her husband's prospering business built on the exploitation of others. The arrival of an emancipated African American circuit lecturer and the man who bought her freedom forces Hannah to confront her own hypocrisies and decide what she's truly willing to sacrifice for her beliefs.
