Dear Lil’ is a true story inspired by author Morgan Heyward’s time as a theater major at Russell Sage
College. In this one act solo performance, Heyward reflects pivotal moments in her life as she packs her
dorm room to leave campus for the last time. Throughout the course of the play, Heyward recounts her
experiences raised in a mixed race household, growing up in a diverse school district and attending a
predominantly white college. Dear Lil’ defines the process of finding your voice as a young person in a
society obsessed with race. Recommended for ages 14 & up (language and mature content).

Directed by David Baecker

Contact 518-244-4504 if you have questions or to order.
Inspired by Alfred Hitchcock’s classic tale–and performed as a live radio play on Zoom. This romantic
thriller is a fast-paced ride through 1930’s London, as Richard Hannay encounters epic train chases, a

feisty love interest, and an unexpected murder. He has his work cut out for him as he searches for the
truth about The 39 Steps. Recommended for ages 10 and up.
