Hello, My Name is…
By Amy Dellagiarino
Directed by Darin Anthony
A comedy about losing your way on the journey to find yourself.
What do you do when the world makes no sense? Some people meditate. Some people travel. And some people… join a cult.
In this razor-sharp satire, a ragtag group of seekers stumble into community, purpose, and even a little joy—in the unlikeliest of places. But as devotion twists and the “truth” grows harder to swallow, each must decide: are they finally becoming who they are, or are they disappearing entirely?
Funny, unsettling, and brutally honest, Hello, My Name Is… explores the human hunger for meaning, the comedy of misplaced faith, and the strange, surprising places where we end up finding ourselves.
Because sometimes you have to lose your mind… to find yourself.

Children of the Winter Kingdom – The Bonkers Adventures of Holly and Spruce
Written by Adam Dugas and Mary Eileen O’Donnell
Directed by Adam Dugas
Thursday, December 4 to Saturday, December 20
Children of the Winter Kingdom is filled with music, puppetry and theatrical wonder – a kaleidoscopic journey will grab your heart and fill your cup. The performance is a holiday picaresque in a style that only The Actors’ Gang can offer.
When orphan twins Holly and Spruce escape from the circus, they get lost in a wintry forest in an enchanted kingdom, Glassenvale, that is in chaos. While being pursued by an evil circus queen and her strongman accomplice, the children meet a series of extraordinary characters in the forest: a king and his dragon, a wild girl, a crow, a sorceress, and an ice spider.
Artistic Director Tim Robbins said of the new work, “We are going to transport our audiences to a magical wintery world – filled with song, puppetry and the traditional theatrical wonder for which The Actors’ Gang is known. As Holly and Spruce help the kingdom of Glassenvale find serenity and balance, they also find their way to friendship, family and what it takes to make a home.”

About
Created by the founders of New Theater Hollywood, this new play traces what happens when a collective dream dissolves. Relying on the tension between supposed reality and self-imposed narrative, the performance follows a film editor who is hired to take over the project of a recently deceased documentary filmmaker. Unsure of the original premise of the documentary, the editor navigates hours of video interviews, rants, and confessions, to find meaning amidst a dramatic collective of once-united characters. This performance marks the latest chapter from the narrative world of Calla Henkel and Max Pitegoff’s episodic film THEATER that weaves a fictional narrative with documentary rehearsal and backstage footage from plays presented at their black box performance space in Hollywood. THE END IS NEW engages with theater, labor, and memory as it reflects on the desire to rewrite the past in the name of the future.
On December 12, there will be a post-show Q&A with Calla Henkel and Max Pitegoff, moderated by REDCAT Deputy Director and Chief Curator, Performing Arts, Katy Dammers.
