Staged readings of new plays

Tipping Point Theatre is dedicated to uplifting local artists and is always looking for new ways to do so. IN THE WORKS is a new program that focuses on the early process of page to stage. It offers an opportunity for playwrights to have their new script read by actors, as well as collaborate with a director for one week.  This process culminates in a staged reading in front of an audience.  This audience is then invited to be a part of the artistic discussion after the reading.

The Jigsaw Bride: A Frankenstein Story

by Joseph Zettelmaier

At the end of the Victorian era, Maria von Moos makes an incredible discovery in the ruins of a Swiss castle: Justine, a woman frozen in time for a hundred years. She brings this stranger into her home and a journey of science and hope begins. As Justine begins to remember who and what she is, Maria sees a future brighter than she could imagine. But harsh realities and betrayals threaten all they hope to accomplish when a traveling circus comes to town.
