Dekalog is an original new performance based on an award-winning series of short films. The play, set in an apartment complex in contemporary Portland, tells stories of the residents’ lives as they become subtly intertwined, facing emotional dilemmas that are at once deeply personal and universally human. Each story draws from one of the Ten Commandments for thematic inspiration as the residents grapple deftly with complex moral and existential questions concerning life, death, love, hate, truth, and the passage of time.

• Age appropriate: 12 and older

In Sorry, Wrong Number, we meet Mrs. Stephenson, a sickly woman restricted to bed with only a telephone to connect her to her 1943 New York community. When she overhears a murder plot on a crossed line, she races the clock to save an unknown woman from a date with death! Will she succeed? Can she get anyone to believe her? And why is her husband so late in coming home? Come find out!

In The Hitchhiker, young Ronald Adams sets out from 1941 Brooklyn for the sunny shores of California, but he can’t avoid seeing the same Hitchhiker over and over. Is it a trick of the mind, or has Adams entered a different, relentless roadside reality?

In our first live and in-person production since the pandemic, we present these two suspenseful plays, each masterfully focusing on the isolation each character must overcome to avoid their own bitter end.

Trigger warnings high suspense, strangulation, and existential angst.

Running time: 90 minutes including a brief intermission (where you can view our Art Gallery!)
