STAGED READINGS

SUICIDE, INCORPORATED by Andrew Hinderaker

It's been a tough week at work.  Revenues are down, lawsuits are up, and protesters picket outside your door.  Worst of all, your boss has begun to suspect that you're trying to keep your clients alive.

THE GARDEN OF MONSTERS by Mara Lathrop

THE GARDEN OF MONSTERS follows the last shred of hope in the world on its perilous journey from the liberation of Dachau, to a wine bar in present-day London, to the year 2045, where a new plague threatens everyone. In a world full of fear, remorse, and a mysterious two-headed clown, can hope -- and humanity -- survive?

FAITH by James McLindon

All that young Simon wants for Christmas is to receive the stigmata and become God's prophet, and if religious fervor has anything to do with it, he's a shoe-in. So when the mysterious Harbinger appears to him in the Walmart parking lot, Simon knows that she is God's angel, the answer to his prayers … or is she?

WAIT by Greg Paul

Journey through an America that has yet to be, where current trends are followed to their funny and often grim conclusions: from urban breadlines to microchips to civilian relocations camps – how does one maintain one's humanity in a foreign country that was once called home?

THE ONE TRUE CHURCH by Robert McAndrew

From the moment he was born, Ben was expected to have divinely inspired visions and then become the Prophet of The One True Church , just as his father and grandfather had done before him. But eighteen-year-old Ben isn't interested in being a Prophet. His older sister Lisa would love to become the Prophet and lead the church in a new direction. Her only obstacles are church doctrine, an all-male hierarchy, and The One True Book.

BLACKOUT by Evan Sesek

Doug can't wait to welcome his son Brian home from Iraq , but younger brother Jared seems to be less than enthused. Brian was supposed to call three days ago, but they haven't heard a word. With a new blackout following the death of four soldiers, Doug struggles to decide whether to go to the airport… or answer the phone.
