Step into mystery with six sharp, 10-minute plays packed with secrets, suspects, and surprise twists. A fast-paced evening of intrigue, thrills, and occasional laughs that proves every clue counts and no case stays cold for long. 🕵️‍♀️đźŽBAKED WITH LOVE by Kate Danley
A hardened criminal. A plate of warm cookies. A sweet old woman who knows exactly where to press. Baked with Love is a darkly comic interrogation where comfort becomes coercion, and kindness is the most terrifying weapon of all.
COMPLICITISH by Rex McGregor
When a detective warns a businessman that someone wants him dead, the truth gets slippery fast. Complicitish is a tense, morally charged duel about corruption, survival, and how far you’ll bend before you break.
NORMAL CITY NOIR (OR: “THE MALTESE HERRING”) by Mitch Lerner
A hard-boiled detective, a missing sister, and a very modern noir meltdown. Normal City Noir skewers classic detective tropes with pop-culture wit, fast laughs, and comic self-awareness.
PLAYED FOR A SAP by Rex McGregor
In postwar L.A., a private eye takes a blackmail job that spirals into betrayal, desire, and fatal miscalculation. Played for a Sap is a razor-sharp noir where everyone’s playing a game. And someone always loses.
SMOKE BREAK by Eden Lane
Outside a courthouse, a detective and a journalist share cigarettes and dangerous truths. Smoke Break crackles with sexual tension and ethical peril as two women confront justice, ambition, and the lies we tell ourselves to survive.
STATE AND SUPERIOR by Kaily Anderson-Barr
A groundhog bite sparks a meditation on truth, heroism, and storytelling itself. Inspired by a real 911 call, State and Superior blends absurdity and empathy to ask why we cling to the things that hurt us most.
