WAITING FOR GODOT
by Samuel Beckett
Directed by Ahmed Attia

Two tramps meet by the roadside and endlessly wait for someone—or something—named Godot. Samuel Beckett's most popular work masterfully examines the tedium and absurdity of human existence.

RED LIGHT
A World Premiere
Written and Directed by Juan Ramirez '08

The Kat's Skin cathouse is involved with the murder of politician John Cain Kincaid. A Nevada police officer goes undercover as a Kat's Skin "employee" to seek out Kincaid's killer. That night, the overzealous local police department raids the cathouse and throws the girls in jail, opening a pandora's box of secrets, jealousy and recriminations.
