On Your Bike
by Joe Venable & Ben James / directed by Robb Correll
On Your Bike is an award-winning, five-star, original musical about love, labour and leftover pizza. Delivering food you don’t get to eat is hungry work. Outside a chicken shop, a group of delivery riders wait for orders, trying to figure out life and love while they do. Threatened by nosy landlords, angry exes, and even their own employer, EATSAROO, they realise they have to group together and stand up for themselves. But fighting a billion-dollar algorithm isn’t that easy.
Winner of Best Musical at the Edinburgh Fringe, 2021 (MusicalTheatreReview.com).

The Lesson
by Eugène Ionesco / directed by Robb Correll
COMIC DRAMA IN ONE ACT: A young woman takes private lessons from an elderly professor and wants to be admitted to ALL university faculties at the same time in the shortest possible time. At the beginning there are strangely funny situations, but soon the professor gains power through his absurd flow of speech. The student, on the other hand, becomes more and more a will-less object. “The Lesson” (French: “La Leçon”) – a play about violence, power and social relations, language and the problem of possible or impossible understanding – is considered THE classic of absurd theater.
Lemons Lemons Lemons Lemons Lemons
by Sam Steiner/ directed by Robb Correll
Lemons Lemons Lemons Lemons Lemons is a play about what we say and how we say it; about the things we can only hear in the silence; about dead cats, activism, eye contact and lemons, lemons, lemons, lemons, lemons.
The punchy, tightly-packed, non-linear script written by Sam Steiner presents a world in which the British government has introduced a “Quietude Bill”, a new law which limits every citizen’s speech to 140 words a day. It’s a two-hander featuring Bernadette (Anke Breihan) and Oliver (Matthew Wildhaber) as they attempt to navigate their relationship in spite of the new restrictions.
