Coming off a lauded Philly Fringe run extended twice by popular demand, HEART RIPPED OUT TWICE AND SO CAN YOU! will be performing two nights at Asheville’s Fringe Festival celebrating local, national, and international theatre. This one woman show was inspired by a double rare tumor diagnosis, open chest surgery, a severe infection, and a terrible breakup. HROTASCY! is a clown comedy set in the world between death and rebirth and asks how we look for hope in the midst of life’s terrible pain. It’s like 127 Hours meets 500 Days of Summer… starring a desperate sales representative in bardo.
From the Broad Street Review: “Time and effort can transform pain into art and laughter. Heart Ripped Out is the triumphant result of this alchemy…Witty and moving.”

The Artisan Players present Neil Simon’s “Rumors”
At a large, tastefully-appointed NYC townhouse, the Deputy Mayor of New York has just shot himself! Though it’s only a flesh wound, Ken Gorman’s self-inflicted injury sets off a series of events causing four couples to experience a severe attack of Farce! As their tenth wedding anniversary party commences, Ken lies bleeding in another room, and his wife Chris is nowhere in sight. Chris and their lawyer, Ken, scramble to get “the story” straight before the other guests arrive. As the confusions and miscommunications mount, the evening spins off into classic farcical hilarity.
The Beauty of
Divine Beings Dancing
The gong resounds, the curtain opens, and a heavenly scene is right before your eyes. Fairies emerge from a sea of billowing clouds. Mongolians ride on horseback across grasslands as vast as the sky. Classic stories of love and loss, of humor and heroic deeds, come to life. You will be amazed by how vibrant, exciting, and profound classical Chinese culture can be.
“An explosion of color and sound…
Chinese culture in its fullest flower.”

By Christopher Durang
Winner of the 2013 Tony Award for Best Play.
Middle-aged siblings Vanya and Sonia share a home in Bucks County, PA, where they bicker and complain about the circumstances of their lives. Suddenly, their movie-star sister, Masha, swoops in with her new boy toy, Spike. Old resentments flare up, eventually leading to threats to sell the house. Also on the scene are sassy maid Cassandra, who can predict the future, and a lovely young aspiring actress named Nina, whose prettiness somewhat worries the imperious Masha.
