Becky and Baldwin presents Other Plays, an evening of funny, strange and provocative new plays by Mari Assad, Mara De La Rosa, Rosie Narasaki, and Nicholas Pilapil.

The Great Vice

Em is seconds away from playing her dream role, Iago, in Shakespeares Othello. However, everything shatters to pieces when her fictional character comes to life, and has a lot to say about her representation of him. Em is forced to realize that she cannot hide from her issues, like Iago does. And Iago must learn to live with his actions continually repeating themselves.

Monica is determined to lose her virginity the night before she gets a Pap smear. Although her roommate tries to talk her out of it, Monica does not want her first time to be with a probe at the gynecologist's. The night ends in rather an interesting note when she meets Clay, a sad aspiring actor, whom she bonds with at the local dive bar.

Visitation Rites
by Rosie Narasaki

featuring Rosie Narasaki and Julian Yuen
Poor Genji's trying to enjoy a simple romantic moment in a cafe, when the ghost of his recently deceased ex-girlfriend decides to possess his date. Their brief and comedic interaction spans everything from his philandering ways to the ultimate existential crisisdeath. Loosely based on 'The Tale of Genji' (but not as loosely as you'd think).

Harry has fallen in love and his grandma Poppy hates it. No one is good enough for her grandson ... especially the cat Harry's fallen in love with.
