In the heart of the Bible Belt, a local theatre announces it will stage a play called Rapture in America—complete with seven seconds of male nudity—and the city goes into a frenzy. Based on actual events, Eric Coble's Southern Rapture turns this civic eruption into a wickedly funny satire about artistic freedom, arts funding, the weaponization of civic institutions, and what happens when conviction outruns common sense.

Bernard Pomerance’s The Elephant Man is a play based on the life of John Merrick, a severely deformed man in Victorian London who is rescued from a sideshow by Dr. Frederick Treves. It explores humanity, dignity, and exploitation, as Merrick is integrated into high society but struggles to define his own identity and normality.
