'The Girl With The Red Hair'
Robert Massimi. From the time you enter the Alchemical Theater, you know you are in for a bumpy, rough ride; so hold on and enjoy. Set with an edgy feel (track lighting and open ducks on ceiling), music plays before the show, Casey Hartnett (Hayley Jones) prepares for the show before us; she would turn in a stellar performance, one to remember for a long time.

'The Comedian's Tragedy'
Robert Massimi. The really great thing about off of Broadway is that you never know when you will come across what I call a hidden gem. In a well directed play that takes place in ancient Greece, we are given a story about a boy who lost himself for a period of time and then finds his dream.

Very similar to a Sam Shepard play, Last Man Club is a gritty play, that is also reminiscent of a Twilight Zone episode. Set in a dust bowl, a family struggles with a deep drought. Desperate to have rain, they believe it will come, even if it by a snake oil salesman.
