The Waiting Room

In "The Waiting Room," Toska the Clown navigates an absurdist bureaucratic landscape where every form leads to another form, and every window remains stubbornly closed. As the waiting stretches on, ordinary objects transform into portals of memory and connection. Through physical comedy, poetic object manipulation, and audience interaction, this 50-minute solo performance explores how we carry home within us. Watch as a municipal waiting room becomes a living map of displacement, where a battered suitcase holds fragments of identity, and administrative paperwork spawns its own surreal choreography. "The Waiting Room" blends European clowning traditions with contemporary physical theater to create a deeply human exploration of migration, belonging, and the unexpected poetry of bureaucratic purgatory.

Pick up where Book of Mormon Musical left off with this pure chaos comedy for the cult-curious. Comedian and three time Edinburgh Fringe performer Leah Renee debuts her newest laugh-out-loud solo show packed with stories, songs, games and surprises so delightful you may wet your non-magic underwear.

Best Cult Ever is a playful exploration of what it felt like to be a lifelong Latterday Saint. The show was born of the result of answering hundreds of questions before, during and after shows, "Why did you leave?", "Did your family disown you?" "What is soaking?"

Clippings: A New Play Festival

A variety of short plays showcasing the writing styles of new playwrights, an ensemble cast, and upcoming creative talent in the Philly scene All plays have undergone a weeklong workshop to grow into the pieces showcased tonight We encourage audience members to share feedback and want to start a dialogue about the growth of the plays shown. This process is inspired by the Equinox New Play Festival at the late University of the Arts, where TBD’s Artistic Team met while working in undergrad. Equinox was a student run festival for students, by students, that allowed UArtists to take risks and experiment with different ways of producing theater TBD aims to carry this tradition forward and continue to create a space for young creatives to enter the industry and discover their artistic voice
