Tommy Lee Jones Goes To Opera Alone

TIME FOR PIE

A near life-size version of Tommy Lee Jones waxes poetic about cowboy boots, his life as a movie star and his love of opera – particularly Puccini’s Turandot.

Space People In Space

A short original comedy about the people on the forefront of the colonization of Mars. Riffing on current events (several international rovers landing/scheduled to land on Mars and the billionaire class getting into the space business), this silly show follows a flight of ordinary folks looking to start a new life on the red planet.

A photo of a worn down leather armchair in the middle of a desert, with telephone poles in the distance and the words "The Armchair Amateurs" in the lower left corner.

The Armchair Amateurs

Coming to your screen with even less information than the armchair experts in your life, The Armchair Amateurs is an online program, featuring Buntport’s brand of irreverent nonsense.

Four grasshoppers are on a Zoom call. Their faces are close to the screens and each has a different room behind them. In a yellow font it says “The Grasshoppers”.

The Grasshoppers

The Grasshoppers is a mini drive-in [live] theater experience (a.k.a a short play performed outdoors while the audience remains in the safety of their cars).

So. Things are weird right now. For everybody.

Due to Covid-19 we have no idea when we will be back up and running. We are busy coming up with as much alternative entertainment as we can, while we are all stuck in different parts of the city. Like so many small businesses, we will need help to get through this indefinite shutdown.

If you have the means, we will gratefully accept donations. Thank you for even considering it! Ironically, we were planning a stay-at-home fundraiser this June. Now, it’s likely all organization will be forced into that route. Anything you can spare will be put to good use.

If you would like to buy gift certificates, we are also making those available. Obviously we don’t know when you’ll be able to put them into action, but we have three choices below (and will work with you if you have other ideas).

Third Tuesdays

Full-length plays

All programming (including The Narrators)

We appreciate you thinking of us during this time. We’re also thinking of you. We miss you and are excited for a time when we can get together again! In the meantime, if you follow us on Facebook, we’ll be posting virtual content. If you don’t have Facebook, we’ll occasionally send stuff via e-mail.

Looking down from above, we see a giant white Rat lying in a rope hammock rubbing his big old belly in green light.

Universe 92

Using real scientific experiments as a jumping off point, Universe 92 is a comedy featuring three animal behaviorists, a giant rat in a hammock, and a Roomba. (more…)
