"I was excited to dive into (American Son) with a group of artists I knew would approach the material with care." -- Director Ebby Offord.

Come see this fantastic crew and the important story they're telling starting next week. American Son opens Friday, September 18

American Son 's preview is two weeks from today with opening on Friday, September 18. We hope you'll join us for this tense and emotionally charged drama about a family caught up in the American "justice" system.

Happy Hour 3: A Staged Reading of Short Plays Set in Bars returns to My Buddy's tonight at 7 p.m. for its third installment. We had so much fun at our last show in October (pictured here), you don't want to miss this installment.

The first two were standing room only, so arrive early so you can G.E.T. a seat, as well as an order of Tachos and a drink before we begin.

Happy Hour 3: A Staged Reading of Short Plays Set in Bars is just around the corner. In less than a week we'll be serving up 8 new short plays set in bars with stories that vary wildly from the loneliness of a future filled with AI robots to horror of being stuck in a bar with a person playing bagpipes for entertainment. G.E.T. ready for a wild ride!

7 p.m. Tuesday, August 25
