We're tired of staged readings. We're going to Fringe.
Field Trip Theatre is a DC-based collective of theatre practitioners who would rather produce and develop new plays than rehash the words of dead white men. Not that we have anything against William Shakespeare, Arthur Miller, Tennessee Williams, and Eugene O’Neill. We just aren’t the same people.
Thanks to Kickstarter, we put on a successful staged reading of Danielle Mohlman's "Stopgap" in January. Now we need your help again. Our goal is to raise enough money to cover participation fees and production costs for our 2012 Capital Fringe production "Stopgap."
After a glass of wine at a birthday brunch, May announces that she’s going to turkey baste her way into pregnancy. That same morning, David tells his husband Robert that he wants to adopt. It’s November 8, 2008 -- four days after Prop 8 passed in California. This dark comedy delves into the lives of six individuals living just on the outskirts of their suburban California town, trying to find their own definition of family in this heteronormative community they call "home."
The play will be performed as part of the 2012 Capital Fringe Festival from July 12 to 29 in Washington, DC. We'd love it if you joined us.FAQ
