Employee of the Year, by 600 Highwaymen.
Five young girls tell the story of J., whose house burns down, taking with it everyone and everything she has ever known. From this moment, a singular journey begins. Featuring the original songs of David Cale.

The Institute of Memory (TIMe), by Lars Jan/Early Morning Opera
Featuring archival wire-tap transcriptions, the missives of communist spies, and MRI brain scans, conjures a portrait of director Lars Jan’s enigmatic father — a Cold War operative whose fascinating story prompts questions about privacy, memory, and fatherhood.

The Art of Luv (Part 1): Elliot, by the Royal Osiris Karaoke Ensemble
Elliot Rodger killed 6 people and injured 13. ROKE responds with a ritual-performance based on a cycle of found love stories — a meditation on masculinity, love and longing that confronts humanity's common search for love as we misunderstand it.

Please note: we only list shows which have seven performances or more.
