滨苍听FLEX,聽Candrice Jones delivers a powerful exploration of ambition, identity, and sisterhood through the lens of a women鈥檚 basketball team. Set in the competitive world of high school sports, the play dives into the lives of these young athletes as they navigate the pressures of success, personal identity, and the divides that exist between their dreams and their realities. As the team battles for victory, they also confront the deeper, often invisible divides of race, class, and gender that shape their lives both on and off the basketball court. At its heart,聽FLEX聽is a celebration of resilience, self-discovery, and the power of community as these women come together to rise above the divides that seek to keep them down.

The true story of a little Jewish play, Indecent recounts the history of the groundbreaking 1923 Broadway play God of Vengeance which scandalized the Jewish community and the American public with its portrayal of love and desire between women. Set against the backdrop of rising fascism and the struggle for creative freedom, Indecent uncovers the divide between art and censorship, identity and persecution, as well as cultural divides both then and now. A testament to the power of art-making as an act of resistance, Indecent is a revolutionary story about finding the unflinching courage to speak truth through art.
