Prehistoric silliness, delicate romance, and valiant struggles for survival and sanity!

It's holiday time at the WorkShop!

Reviews & Press: 

The actors excel and the writing is crisp and real. If you wish to escape the relentless goodwill of the holiday season, snack on this entertaining treat.

Like sprinkles on a snowy cupcake, the WorkShop theater brightens up the evening with temptation, intrigue, anticipation, and finally that satisfied feeling you get when you've had just enough. From romance and life choices in the primordial ooze to violent options in a Nazi concentration camp, the plays are snapshots of what life can be and what we can make of it.

This yummy smorgasbord is provocative without being heavy, and kissed with light humor.
