Informed Consent

An electrifying new play by one of the most exciting voices in American theater, Informed Consent is an “urgent, challenging, and of-the-moment” (Cleveland Plain Dealer) drama about one woman’s quest to answer the mysteries of science and her own life, inspired by a landmark court case between one of the country’s largest universities and a Native American tribe based in the Grand Canyon.  In the past year alone, Deborah Zoe Laufer has had over 20 productions of her plays performed throughout the country and we are thrilled to present Informed Consent in its Off-Broadway Premiere, directed by Obie winner Liesl Tommy (Appropriate, The Good Negro.)

Old MacDonald Had A Brunch

In Youngblood brunch history, we have done many foolhardy, some would say dumb, things. There was the nudity brunch (we called it NAKED BRUNCH!), the pirate brunch (CAP'N BRUNCH, anyone?), and the time we did a political brunch in a swing state (COLUMBRUNCH, OHIO! See what we did there?). All in the name of breakfast-based theatre art.

WINNERS

The hilarity, war, and regular mayhem of family life spin out of control when the financial crisis hits and the Mackey family is forced to make big changes. Everything is off. Dad’s in pajamas. Nothing is as it's supposed to be. It takes the kids (and cat and dog) to set things straight. Daring those they love most to be not just heroes - but superheroes.
