“A nonstop delight." - SF Examiner

"There are so many great moments in The Making of a Great Moment that it's hard to decide if the best ones are from the comic side or the more dramatic one." -Theater Dogs

Presented by Wallace Too Productions and The Filigree Theatre: a staged reading of At the Edge of Nowhere, Sabrina Wallace's debut one-act stage play directed by Elizabeth V. Newman.

What happens when a seventeen-year-old girl discovers she is pregnant in the weeks following the overturning of Roe v. Wade?

Set in a small rural Texas town, “At the Edge of Nowhere" follows Sadie as she carries a secret that could mean her future is no longer her own. As she navigates family expectations, town gossip, religious judgment, and political division, the voices around her become a chorus of fear and pressure that threatens to drown out her own thoughts.

Part of The Filigree Theatre's Stage One Reading Series, a workshop series dedicated to the development of new works by established and emerging playwrights and screenwriters.

January 12– February 13, 2027

Hyde Park Theatre season show: That’s right: it will soon be time to heat up your winter nights again with the 32nd season of FronteraFest at Hyde Park Theatre. The Short Fringe, BYOV, and Mi Casa--as always and ever, FronteraFest is five weeks of alternative, offbeat, new, and just plain off-the-wall fringe theatre. Too bad there's no actual way to expect the unexpected, because that is your only hope.

PARTICIPANTS! We’re taking applications, first come first served — and there’s a discount if you apply by October 1. Do it! This is the year! (And check out the online “FronteraFest 101” workshop Tuesday, September 22—sliding scale fees.)

FronteraFest is produced in collaboration with ScriptWorks, a group dedicated to supporting emerging playwrights and developing new dramatic works.

February 25 - March 27, 2027

Hyde Park Theatre season show. Annie Baker is the Pulitzer Prize and MacArthur Genius Award-winning playwright of many past HPT favorites, including John, The Antipodes, The Flick, The Aliens, Circle Mirror Transformation, and Body Awareness,

In 2027, HPT is bringing you Baker’s latest: a very funny and occasionally harrowing play set at a California pain clinic. The New York Times called Infinite Life “very weird and great.” Vulture called it “nimble, funny, and devastating . . . Whatever the relative wellness or illness of our bodies, Infinite Life gathers us all in its wide embrace, turning its curious, accepting gaze on our brokenness.”

Directed by Ken Webster. More details soon.
