Selections from this year's lineup include:
Anti-Gone
Adapted by Sivan Raz from Sophocles with devised content by Katy Shafer, Maggie Dickinson, Devon Khalsa, Hila Shats and Eli Lomax. Translated by Ian Johnston
Presented by Needs More Work Productions - Queens, NY
Anti-Gone is a bold new adaptation of the beloved classic. Audiences take on an active part in determining the outcome of the thrilling drama, utilizing the most popular invention of Ancient Greece—the democratic vote. Is a happy ending for Antigone’s story possible? Will we be able to find what has not been found in 2,500 years—a solution? "Giving Antigone a sense of possibility after all this time".
Jackie & Allison Into the Multiverse
Written by Jackie Skinner, Allison Villaseñor, Hayley Karl and Will Auther - Brooklyn, NY
A chaotic and absurd trip to different universes. You’re a part of it. Ultimately, it’s adorable. Don’t think too hard. Jackie and Allison are a comedy duo that originated in New York, but Jackie moved to Los Angeles, so now they have to visit each other. Clown. Sketch. Improv. Lovable idiots!
The Cruelty-Free Confessions of Hannah Blake
Written by Oliver Britten
Presented by AFAFO Media LLC - Franklinton, LA
Fresh off its run at EdFringe 2024, The Cruelty-Free Confessions of Hannah Blake is a darkly comedic tale and vivid portrait of a vegan serial killer who fears that her daughter will inherit her horrific legacy. Part cooking demonstration, part fever dream, Hannah revisits her encounters with victims who still live vibrantly in her mind.
90 Years of Song and Scandal
Written & Performed by D'yan Forest - New York, NY
Comedienne, cabaret artist and living legend D'yan Forest (currently Guinness World Records Title Holder for Oldest Female Comedian in the World) returns with a new show. D’yan, with her trusty ukulele in hand, takes the audience back to when she was just seven years old, telling the hilarious tales of her storied life that led her to become the 90-year-old woman she is today. Critics have called her everything from "saucy," "witty," "irrepressible" and a "naughty version of Betty White." D’yan performed on The Drew Barrymore Show and has been featured in The New York Times, Time Out NY, New York Post, The Guardian and France’s Got Talent.
The End of All Flesh
Written by Greg Kotis
Presented by Theater of the Apes - New York, NY

Henry Hicks, Attorney at Cowboy Law
Written by Jack McManus
Presented by Our Horse Jethro - Brooklyn, NY
Jo Colston is a very good lawyer, raised on daytime TV. But when all the other lawyers in her firm are busy, she finds herself in Cowboy Court—full of root’n, toot’n and pistol shoot’n. How will she hold up against Henry Hicks, the fastest countersuit in the west?
Uncle Vanya, After Chekhov: A New Adaptation
Adapted by Emily Ann Banks
Presented by Arachne Theater - New York, NY

Gabe Mollica: Horse Lawyer
Written & Performed by Gabe Mollica
Presented by 20 Middleton Entertainment - Queens, NY
Gabe Mollica (This American Life, The Moth) watched his father achieve a 35-year dream to become an attorney. Moments later, Gabe was rushed to the hospital and given Last Rights by his mother’s Priest, twice. Come laugh and think at Horse Lawyer.
