These two visually arresting
and poetic plays ruminate on the nature of beauty, faith and fidelity, asking what it means to hold onto
your beliefs, and what it takes to let them go. In The Frog Prince, David Mamet spins a comic tale of
an arrogant prince serving time as an amphibian. In Academy Award nominee José Rivera's The Winged Man
the only thing we know for certain is that Daysi is pregnant. Was the baby conceived with the mystical
"Winged Man," as she insists?

The Cripple of Inishmaan
by Martin McDonagh
directed by Eve Muson
Set on a remote island off the west coast of Ireland in 1934, THE CRIPPLE OF
INISHMAAN is a strange comic tale in the great tradition of Irish
storytelling. As word arrives on Inishmaan that a Hollywood director is
coming to the neighboring island of Inishmore to film MAN OF ARAN, the one
person who wants to be in the film more than anybody is young Cripple Billy,
if only to break away from the bitter tedium of his daily life.
