Moss and Avis, an attractive, middle-aged couple, wake up one morning in an isolated summer house high above a picturesque body of water. The weather’s fine; the view’s magnificent. There’s only one problem—neither of them can remember who they are. When a young woman named Wren arrives, information starts to flood in. But will it help? Her explanations seem only to make Moss and Avis’ world—as well as ours—more terrifying.
A Body of Water was awarded the $25,000 Steinberg Award for best new play of 2006, presented by the American Theatre Critics Association; and the Minneapolis Star-Tribune’s prize for outstanting new script of 2005.

Closer Than Ever is an intimate, insightful tale about love, security, happiness – and holding onto them in a world that pulls you in a hundred directions at once. Maltby and Shire bring their celebrated craft and contemporary sensibility to songs about aging, mid-life crisis, second marriages, and role reversals with parents, as well as wicked satirical jabs at Muzak, working couples and unrequited love.

A cowbird lays its eggs in other birds' nests and never returns for them. Julie Marie Myatt uses this singular image to explore the notion of motherhood and its implications in a thoughtful and surprisingly unsentimental fashion in her new play, Cowbird.
