paper backs & life jacket

by Tristan B. Willis & by Caridad Svich

now closed

4615 Theatre Company is proud to present its bold new repertory productions of two world premiere plays.

In Tristan B. Willis' paper backs, a scholar and artist navigate their passion for their art and each other while stuck in a relationship that continuously cycles back to the beginning.

Caridad Svich's Life Jacket is a story about two friends on a boat. They live in a small town near the sea. On this Sunday, they go out, as they have done in the past, but this time, something changes. Call it a spirit encounter. Or maybe they just hit some nasty debris in the water. Whatever the case, it is a day that will test them both.

"TWO REWARDING ONE ACTS... FROM 4615 THEATRE"

"paper backs in many ways punches above its weight. The same could be said of [Life Jacket]"
