“Song of Hephaestus” by Joseph Plock, directed by Vincent James
Hephaestus, ancient god of fire and the forge, is crafting in his workshop. As he pours himself into his work, his hammer pounds out a rhythm of creation: from the first spark of an idea, through striving and failure, to finally singing of accomplishment

“Mother Tongue” by Stephen Kaplan, directed by Patricia Coleman
In a war-torn Ukraine where every word carries weight, a desperate mother pleads with her child’s teacher to set aside principles for practicality — forcing them into a battle over language, identity, and survival.
---
“Fair Share” by Byron Nilsson, directed by Tobias Martin
A young tax collector named Leslie calls on Beatrice and Harry, an elderly couple, in order to settle their debt, and finds them hilariously over-cooperative. This is a compact farce in the spirit of The Goon Show.
---
“Lightbringers” by J. Scala, directed by Michael Anderton-Stuart
In search of new places to expand the domain of hell; a fiend encounters the chained Prometheus. The two discuss divine crime and punishment, and the potential of hope. Chaos ensues..
---
“The Hermes Show” by Vincent James, directed by Marissa Lounello
Remember the Jerry Springer show or the Maury Povich show? Well what if the gods had their own spin on that? On the Hermes show hijinks ensues when we take a look at one of the many indiscretions of the king of the gods Zeus himself.
