ISIS:  The Unimaginable
by Jihad Abdulmumit
For Our Children Productions 
ISIS – The Islamic State – is the latest among many international problems that America’s first Black president must face. He has a plan to infiltrate the enemy, but little does he realize, the enemy has the exact plan to be executed in the exact same way and at the exact time. The switch is explosive; but after much intrigue, suspense and death, a resolution of hope and peace emerges in the most unique, unforseen way. There is only one opportunity to seize it……

Parade
by Jason Robert Brown
Jewish Family Theatre
The tragic, true story of the trial and lynching of a man wrongly accused of murder is brought to emotional and theatrical life by acclaimed playwright Alfred Uhry (Driving Miss Daisy) and Jason Robert Brown, one of Broadway’s most promising young composers (Songs for a New World).  IN 1913, Leo Frank, a Broklyn-raised Jew living in Georgia, is put on trial for the murder of a 13-year-old Mary Phagan, a factory worker under his employ.  Already guilty in the eyes of everyone around him a sensationalist publisher and a janitor’s false testimony seal Leo’s fate.  His only defenders are a governor with a conscience, and, eventually, his assimilated Southern wife who finds the strength and love to become his greatest champion.

Freud’s Last Session
by Mark St. Germain
Stable Theatre Company 
Freud's Last Session centers on legendary psychoanalyst Dr. Sigmund Freud who invites the young, rising Oxford Don C.S. Lewis to his home in London. On the day England enters World War Two, Freud and Lewis clash about love, sex, the existence of God, and the meaning of life, just weeks before Freud took his own life. FREUD'S LAST SESSION is a deeply touching play filled with humor and exploring the minds, hearts and souls of two brilliant men addressing the greatest questions of all time.
