TheatreFIRST continues to welcome our community back home to Live Oak Theater with an exciting new Season of shows that interrogate the American socio-political climate, and urge home-grown activism. Theatre has the ability to amplify beautiful and painful truths, and we are holding space for theatre making that does deep and necessary work with our 2022/23 Season. We offer three shows that invite conversations and investigate solutions to three of America’s largest, looming challenges: politically fractured relationships, gay rights, and reproductive justice. Are you ready?

A Marriage 

Written by Tom Swift

Directed by Richard A Mosqueda

February 10 – February 19, 2023

On a random, quiet evening, two men make the unlikely decision to fall in love. This comedic story chronicles their 40 year relationship- its highs and lows, newness and sameness- in an ever changing world. We are ultimately offered a unique perspective on a marriage, with all the laughter, sadness, joys, and challenges it provides. TheatreFIRST produces this world premiere after streaming their award-winning, pandemic-era, virtual production.
