Rainbow Around the Sun
Flamboyant local rock hero Zachary Blasto struggles with personal demons as he relives both painful and joyous memories during a radio retrospective of his career. Based on the concept album and indie film of the same name, this prog-rock concert with a story is a circus-like dissection of broken hearts, life through a liquor bottle, and rebirth through loss.

Vanities
Chronicling the comic journey of three vivacious Texas teens from cheerleaders to sorority sisters to housewives, liberated women and beyond, this tangy tale of coming-of-age in the ’60s and ’70s is a musical scrapbook of an era that had to be lived to be believed. With a tunefully evocative score by David Kirshenbaum and Jack Heifner’s hilarious adaptation of his long-running off-Broadway smash, Vanities, a New Musical offers a snapshot-sharp portrait of the lives, loves, disappointments, and dreams of best friends caught up in times that are a-changin’.
