A story of familial dysfunction, primitive Internet dating, and recreational bomb-building. Set in the pre-Y2K era to an electrifying alt-rock score, LOUD explores the minds of five troubled but resilient souls: a father questioning his sexuality, a mother questioning her sanity, two twenty- somethings searching for love on Instant Messenger, and a disenchanted teenage stalker looking for...well, the object of his stalking.

Butterflies Are Free ~ A play by Leonard Gershe ~ Directed by Richard Lauson
All Don Baker wants is a place of his own away from his over-protective mother. Don's been blind since birth, but that doesn't stop him from setting up in an apartment and making the acquaintance of his off-the-wall, liberated, actress neighbor Jill Tanner. Don learns the kind of things from Jill that his mother would never have taught him! And Jill learns from Don what growing up and being free is really all about. The title was inspired by a passage in Charles Dickens' Bleak House: "I only ask to be free. The butterflies are free.”
