About Three Can Keep a Secret

It was supposed to be an easy score. Whack the mark. Stage the scene. Take the money. Retire to Cabo. That’s how it was supposed to go down. But for poor Moose and Sonny, a really bad night is only just beginning…

Three Can Keep A Secret, a new play by Gregory Crafts (Friends Like TheseSuper Sidekick: The Musical) is a darkly funny and slightly twisted interactive crime thriller where YOU, the audience, choose how our story proceeds while our anti-heroes attempt to literally get away with murder.

With multiple decision points throughout the story, no two performances will be the same!

 

About Play/Time: Serial Edition

Theatre Unleashed is excited to bring back the acclaimed Play/Time for the first time in three years! Five writers will be given a new prompt every week for four weeks. They’ll have less than a week to each write a full short play. A group of actors then has less than a week to rehearse all five and put them up on stage. While they’re rehearsing, the writers get new prompts and start working on the next batch for the actors to perform. Each week features different plays so every show is different! When all is said and done, Theatre Unleashed will have written and produced 20 new works!

As a twist, this time around, writers are encouraged to use the same characters each week to develop a series of loosely connected shorts that play out over the run, thus the name Serial Edition! Plus, there just might be some guest stars who show up to play…
