But Who's Counting
by Larry Loebell

New Year's Eve, 1999. A charismatic young woman has invited a guy back to her stylishly furnished apartment and chained him up tight, in anticipation of her 2,000th sexual escapade.
But she is no crazed dominatrix: Sweet, cultured, with a zest for the pleasures of life, she's kept detailed notes on every enlightening coupling over the last twenty years. And tonight she's going to share with the audience a bit of what she's learned, in one racy, rollicking monologue.

Murmuring In a Dead Tongue
by J.T. Rogers

A man sits before us in a chair, telling a fever-dream of a story: about a cocktail party he's just come back from that went disastrously wrong, about channel-surfing between a mesmerizing surgery and the world's strangest action movie -- all while quoting his mysterious, enigmatic wife.

I Dream Before I Take The Stand
by Arlene Hutton

A defense lawyer cross-examines a woman during her testimony in a sexual assault case -- and in doing so, horribly distorts her perfectly innocent walk in the park.
