A Beautiful Glass, the new, original musical by the critically acclaimed A Theatre Near U, is an honest, boisterous and surprisingly uplifting story about suicide and supernovas. Justin Capps has given himself the impossible task of “curing suicide.” His fanatical drive to fulfill this dream has caused everyone else to think he’s nuts. In fact, the only person to take his quest seriously is the girl behind the telescope, the girl hunting supernovas, the girl named George.
Is the glass half full or half empty? Why ask? It’s a beautiful glass.

‘Twas Brillig
A THEATRE NEAR U presents the raucous and irreverent teen musical, ‘TWAS BRILLIG starring a troupe of triple-threat teen performers. In this off-beat comedy, plucky Mary Pickett steps through a doorway and finds herself in the land of Wonder mere hours before the coronation of a new Queen is set to commence. Trouble is, it is Mary the lunatics intend to crown, and, well frankly, she isn’t so keen on that. Will she capitulate? Who will she decapitate? And will it all happen before brillig?

A Theatre Near U presents The World Premiere of Children of an Idle Brain by Tony Kienitz. This is a story of dreams, of dreaming, of the slip-sliding we do between varied states of reality. Reality is what we each experience singularly, each of our lives a piece of an infinite reality. So then, in the end, who’s to say what reality truly is? Is it your reality or my reality?
