Set in the near future, 85-year-old Marjorie's mind is gradually succumbing to ​
dementia. ​To combat her fading recollections, her family introduces her to a “Prime”—
a lifelike holographic projection of her late husband, Walter, programmed to retell the
stories of their shared past. As Marjorie interacts with Walter, the lines between
authentic memories and reconstructed narratives blur, prompting profound questions ​about identity, the reliability of our recollections, and the extent to which technology can replicate the essence of human connection.

In this tense and gripping thriller, ​set in 1944 Greenwich Village, a recently blinded
woman named Susan Hendrix becomes the target of three con men searching for a
mysterious doll filled with illicit goods. Unaware of the doll’s true value, Susan is
drawn into a dangerous game of deception and survival. Jeffrey Hatcher’s ​adaptation
​of Frederick Knott’s classic play brings a darker, more psychologically driven edge to the suspenseful tale.

A dark and thrilling tale of ambition and consequence, Shakespeare’s Macbeth comes to life through the powerful performances of Cinnabar’s Young Rep (ages 12–18). When Macbeth receives a prophecy from mysterious forces, he sets out on a ruthless path to claim the throne of Scotland. But each act of violence only leads to more bloodshed—and the ghosts of his crimes refuse to stay buried. Murder, madness, and magic collide in this gripping tragedy.
