Akin: It's in the Blood by Noah Kelly and Sarah McKereghan, A two-act dark thriller which delves into the choice John makes to reveal or conceal his extramarital affair with his wife's identical twin sister. With both women pregnant by him, both choices affect the lives of an entire family over 32 years. Two acts present the story as a set of parallel universes, twisting and turning to reveal what might lie beneath the surface of one person's actions.

Now and at the Hour by Christian Cagigal. A journey through Time and Reflection. EXIT Stage Left FRI/SAT 8pm FEBRUARY 12 - MARCH 6 Tickets $15("I Need a Discount Ticket"), $20("General Admission) and $25("I Support the Arts Ticket") online. CLICK HERE FOR TICKETS REVIEWS Not a mere series of tricks, Now and at the Hour weaves magic, mind reading, story telling and theatre into an intimate, interactive and altogether "slightly creepy" magical experience. Christian Cagigal is among a new crop of illusionists and theatre artists that dares to go beyond the usual bag of tricks and bring you into a world of darkness, mystery and imagination. His work doesn't attempt to "Blow your brain" or "Freak your mind", but slowly seep into your subconscious until you have to ask the question, "This isn't real is it…?" Comments on previous shows by Christian Cagigal: "The appearance of occult powers was strong enough to leave me feeling unsettled and slightly violated for the rest of the evening." - SF Weekly "His antics bespeak a certain creepiness albeit the kind that sends alternating shivers of delight and anxiety through the crowd." -SF Station "Style, dignity, and true artistry. Now, and at the Hour is a unique and genuine theatrical experience that should not be missed." -NY Theatre.com Asked who the show is geared for, Cagigal replies, "It's for believers, skeptics, those who hate magic shows, and those who hate theatre. There is nothing inappropriate for children at all but this will not be a 'kids'' magic show."
