2026 Season
"Stars, hide your fires": Confronting Fate. 

Shakespeare characters are often confronted with the question of whether their lives are ruled by fate or if they have free will over their actions. The selection of new plays and adaptations this season demand answers to that question and force the audience to reckon with their own power of autonomy.

The background is a dark blue Victorian-style wallpaper design, featuring skulls, snakes, and roses. There is a spotlight shining down on an image of a classic radio microphone with neon green smoke coming out of it. A music staff with neon green notes winds up the mic stand. Below the mic is a whiskey glass with neon green liquid and an ice cube in the shape of a skull. The neon green text at the bottom says: Bar(d), an original comedy.
