In Lauren Gunderson’s Anthropology, a brilliant tech-savvy sister refuses to accept her younger sibling’s mysterious disappearance as a closed case. Using data, digital footprints, and artificial intelligence, she launches her own investigation—blurring the lines between truth, memory, and grief.

SEASON TICKETS
A staged reading is a form of theatre without sets or complete costumes and props. The actors read from scripts, sometimes using music stands. They may be seated, stand in fixed positions, or incorporate minimal stage movement.
Our staged reading series is named after the infamous trilogy of plays written by Alred Jarry (Ubu Roi) that were banned from the stage after riots erupted on opening night. This exciting series of shows exists to offer actors, directors and audience members an opportunity to experience incredible plays that do not necessarily fit into our regular mainstage season.
Thank you for taking this journey with us.
