New Work #1: FOCUS GROUP: A One-Man Show by Jeff Greenspan
FOCUS GROUP explores the pressures to be liked and accepted.
Inspired by experiences on staff at countless ad agencies, Facebook, and BuzzFeed, and how years of working as a professional liar led me to acceptance of certain self-truths.
The performance will be focus-grouped in real-time with a moderator.
Stale cookies and M&M's will be served.

New Work #2: Cast Iron Storytelling: “Crossroads and Constellations” by Jason Tinney
Created and directed by Jason Tinney, Cast Iron Storytelling is a Chattanooga-based series that fosters the art and craft of storytelling and honors the diverse and distinct voices that call Southeastern Tennessee, and the greater Appalachian region, home.
Cast Iron makes its debut as part of the New Works in Process Artist Residency at Barking Legs Theater. Featured storytellers – Dr. Cathy Scott, Taylor Boyd, and Ginger Birnbaum – will share true, personal tales spurred by the theme: “Crossroads and Constellations.” These stories explore a crossroads moment in their lives and the stars that aligned to guide them through a pivotal choice.
Inspired by the power of storytelling to connect neighbors with neighbors across our community, Cast Iron – seasoned and made to last a lifetime – celebrates the stories that shape who we are.
8:00 PM
New Work #3: EVERYTHING IS FINE by Stephanie Hong
An adapted live staged reading based on the three-season comedy drama series created by Chattanooga local Stephanie Hong.
After a massive nervous breakdown leads to her expulsion from her traditionalist Chinese mother's house, isolated sexual assault survivor Amy Zhou finds herself surrounded by an eclectic group of college roommates who help her to rebuild her life, one moment and one shenanigan at a time.
Join the crew live, one night only — for a search, a heist, and a desperate plea.
