Before It Hits Home<br />
By Cheryl West<br />
Directed by Donis Leonard<br />
Set in the early 90s, Before It Hits Home tells the story of Wendal<br />
Bailey, a black bisexual jazz musician whose life on the down-low<br />
endangers both himself and his loved ones. This complex and<br />
thought-provoking play explores the effect of AIDS on Wendal,<br />
his lovers, and his entire family. This crisis in the Bailey family is<br />
often raw and candid, but is much more than just a story about<br />
AIDS. Cheryl West’s award-winning play is ultimately a story<br />
about conditional and unconditional love.<br />
Contains mature themes and strong language.<br />
In the Next Room (or The Vibrator Play)<br />
By Sara Ruhl<br />
Directed by Shonni Holmes<br />
In the 19th century, doctors began treating women for “hysteria”<br />
by bringing them to orgasm using a device we now know as a<br />
vibrator. In the Next Room is a fictional take on historical events<br />
about one such doctor who provides women this service when<br />
brought in by their husbands. The doctor doesn’t realize he is guilty<br />
of the same faults as other husbands, until his sexually frustrated<br />
wife, after conversations with a wet nurse, convinces him to try to<br />
something new.<br />
