    Poor but brilliant college student Tracy needs to get into a top law school so she can be a lawyer for the poor. With the economic odds stacked against her, she tries to rationalize her job writing term papers for other wealthy students, but she’s not sure she can do it. When We Get Good Again explores the current age in which personal integrity seems to be eroding before our eyes. In a world of privilege and deprivation, is it still immoral to cheat in order to level a playing field that is already supposed to be flat? Learn More

    A multicultural ensemble takes on characters who dive headlong into their experiences of trying to stay personally connected in the digital age. Actors take on many characters to create a cacophony of viewpoints: an internet influencer, a gender fluid go-getter, a mother and son who desperately want to be seen, the popular students with a tendency to bully, and the misfits who strive to be understood. These unique voices create a dynamic theatrical whirlwind that is full of humor and insight. Learn More
