A Pile Up On Memory Lane

The Overtime Theater proudly presents A Pile-up on Memory Lane, a profound new social drama written by Zee Bendici, the newest trans voice in playwriting. Her play follows 3 friends from college reconnecting after a few years. Suddenly a trans woman, named Harmony, arrives who knows everything about them and even shares their memories. But no one remembers her. Suspicions rise about this strange “other” person. What does she want? Friendships are challenged and emotions run high when memories resurface.

Performances run May 5 to 27, 2023, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 pm, with one Sunday matinee on May 21 at 3 pm, and Pay-What-You-Will night now on Thursday, May 11 at 8 PM. The Overtime Theater is located at 5409 Bandera Road, Suite 205 on the city’s northwest side. General admission tickets are $18, or $12 for SATCO members, military and students with a valid ID.

Ghosting

Dedicated to providing original, innovative, and accessible entertainment at an affordable price, the Overtime Theater is proud to present Ghosting. This along with The Reverend Dr. Paul(i) Murray and other productions at the Overtime in June are a part of our pride series.

After the death of his husband Todd, Jeffrey, a middle-aged man, hires Brandon, a struggling writer to finish his late husband’s plays in an effort to secure his theatrical legacy. Though Brandon sees this as a temporary job and a chance to get paid to work on his passion project, sparks fly between the young man and the still-grieving widower. In his ghostly form, an ever-optimistic Todd does his best to encourage the match until Brandon discovers an intimate diary detailing Todd and Jeffrey’s final days together. With the help of best friends Carol and Gavin and Todd’s otherworldly approval, the couple find their way back into each other’s hearts while also finishing Todd’s unfinished works.

The show will run for ten performances: Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. June 17th to July 9th, 2022 in The Gregg Barrios Theater. The Overtime Theater is located at 5409 Bandera Road, Suite 205 on the city’s Northwest Side. General admission tickets are $18.

The show stars Jonathan Schell as “Jeffrey,” Darrel Philips as “Todd,” Lucas Collins as “Brandon,” Nita Campos as “Carol,” and Albert Penuelaz as “Gavin.” Jeffery Hensel directs.
