#PlayAtHome with Plan-B Theatre Company

#PlayAtHome with Dee-Dee & Tito…and now Tatiana, Olivia, Brandan, Iris & Darryl!

Plan-B Theatre Company is thrilled to announce participation in the #PlayAtHome project, a series of short plays to be enjoyed at home, commissioned specifically for this moment of unprecedented isolation, to inspire joy and connection for all. The goals are simple: pay some artists, invite people to get offline and into their imaginations, and inspire joy and connection.

Available Plays

Tito Livas’s SHINE A LIGHT Young Dev gets in trouble for trying to burn ants and falls asleep in his bed. Upon awakening he realizes he is in the world of the insects. A roly poly, two sassy bees, a couple ants, and an old worm convince Dev that no matter our size, we all serve a purpose.

Iris Salazar’s YOU HAVE THE RIGHT A virus has been spreading throughout the country and strict restrictions have been implemented over the last two years, such as curfew, the gathering of more than six people, and shopping limitations, as well as financial assistance. The economy has not managed to recover and the high unemployment numbers continue. As per the usual human spirit and love of freedom, there is a group of Rebels who will not conform to the new way of life. Kid Garza has taken it upon herself to bring a little joy to others by hosting a Quarantine Mask-Gear-Aid paint ballooning war in an abandoned house every month.
