The At First Sight New Work Festival's 2024 showcase production is a brand new musical with book, music, and lyrics by third year MFA playwriting candidate David Davila. In Vox-Pop! a Post-Democratic Musical, a group of rebel troubadours is surrounded on all sides by the deadly forces of an oppressive regime. In their last few moments of freedom they have only one chance left to pass along the tale of Vox Populi, a sacred secret that tells of the rise and fall of a great mythical society. Can they pass along the legend to their children before they're captured, and save future democracies from corruption? Or, is there no such thing as democracy without corruption?

Vox Pop! a Post-Democratic Musical

Wells-Metz Theater

A young man is drawn into a love affair with Queen Elizabeth 1. As Orlando strives to make their way as a poet and lover, their travels keep Orlando at the heart of a tale where gender and gender expression shifts regularly, with whimsical results.

Orlando

This modern riff on the fifteenth-century morality play Everyman follows Everybody (chosen from amongst the cast by lottery at each performance) as they journey through life’s greatest mystery—the meaning of living.
