The Lion, the Witch, and the War Hero; or Is McCain Able?
Just in time for the Republican National Convention and the 2008 Presidential
election, the Brave New Workshop is taking a look at all things political.
With the 2008 unconventional campaign process getting crazier and even more
unpredictable, join your favorite Brave New Workshop performers from recent
shows as they satirize the politicians, election process, and what it is
to be a voter in the USA.

Audiences can spice up their Fridays with as each performance will offer
a unique selection of never-before-seen hilarious video, sketch debuts,
and improv all by the Brave New Workshop main stage actors. This is a great
new opportunity to perform material that didn't meet the topic confines
of our main stage show, as well as an immediate stage for newly developed
material. Each performance will have new material, and give audiences a
new look at Workshop actors and their current musings.

Married Alive! by Sean Grennan & Leah Okimoto
MARRIED ALIVE! is a funny and touching new musical that looks in on two
married couples, one newlywed and one oldywed. The production focuses on
the trials, joys, triumphs and defeats that are found in contemporary marriage.
It's fast paced and at times sharp, but always affectionate. From babies
to empty nests, job stress to domestic bliss, four actors and one piano
comprise the evening's entertainment. Recommended for adult theatre-goers.

The Wonder Bread Years by Pat Hazell
A hilarious 90 minutes of genuinely funny observations of our collective
youth: Toughskin jeans, Jiffy Pop popcorn, Kool-aid stands and more! This
one-man 'Show & Tell' promises to "feed the belly as well as the
spirit." It’s an infectiously charming, fast-paced, hilarious
production that takes you back to a simpler time in life - when candy was
currency and the most dangerous kid in school carried a "switch-comb."
THE WONDER BREAD YEARS offers you a chance to return to your childhood;
it's an evening of pure escapism, where you have permission to think and
act like a kid. Green army men rule, Etch-A Sketch is king and things that
don't go your way are a "gyp." This classic material makes you
crave the taste of space food sticks and revisit the faint scar from a lawn
dart injury.
