LAB's 2023 Season
"I have to share that I had a really wonderful evening tonight. I headed down to Tampa, FL to see "My Darling Tortue" performed by the Lab Theater Project, and was absolutely blown away. My piece was up first, and despite knowing every single joke ahead of time, the talent of the actors (Rick Fernandez and John Hooper) had me laughing the whole time. Caroline Jett's direction was perfect.
And after that... the show was every bit as good all the way through. Six pieces, six home runs.
Thank you, Owen and folks, for an amazing evening. You cultivated a fan tonight!
P.S. If you are inclined, they have a means of seeing the show online. It is well worth it!" -Jeff Dunne
"I urge EVERYONE to come and see this show! Seeing Lab Laughs made my entire week. What a phenomenal production!" -Alexa S.

In A Medieval tale, full of wonderful wordplay, think Canterbury Tales meets Monty Python; Margery and Peter Dorking are trying to prepare for tax season. Their son isn’t interested in farming but would rather be a crier for the town. Their daughter’s fierce religious convictions turn toward Henry, their Rooster, who has laid an egg. Sister Tydfill sees this as a sign of consorting with the devil. Margery and Peter try to save Henry’s “tail” resulting in a most delightful but true “tale.”

THE HEIR OF PRETENDING
by Jared Eberlein
Directed by Owen Robertson
November 2 - 19, 2023
For Burton Quinn, the opening night of an extremely “out-of-town” production of The Delightfully Dead Kinsman in Binghamton, New York, is an ambitious return to the Broadway musical that nearly made him famous four decades earlier. Certainly, the material still holds magic for Burton, even though he has graduated from theromantic lead to the patriarchal role and now must share a dressing room with the very green Billy Caulfield, Kinsman's new leading man. Technical difficulties delay the curtain, though, prolonging Billy's nervous agony and bringing hope to Burton that Tovah—his wife and good luck charm—might still arrive on time. When Burton’s estranged son, John, arrives instead, with news that Tovah is leaving the marriage, the earth stands still, then shatters at Burton’s feet. John demands his father, for once, choose people who care for him, over a mistress—the theatre—that has always taken and never given back.
