It’s BACK!
The Firehouse Theatre Cabaret, opens Thursday, April 24th.
SEE — the Firehouse interior transformed into an intimate cabaret-style setting!
BE ENTERTAINED — by Director Scott Wichmann, Alia Bisharat, Jude Fageas, and Lisa Kotula playing various roles in these ten-minute, one-act plays:
- “Clowning Around” by Jamie Brandli, in which two women compete for a job neither want, but both desperately need
- “Isabelle” by Ellen Melaver, in which a man projects his old dreams onto his ex-girlfriend’s new life
- “The Award” by Jeffrey Sweet, in which a scientist’s trophy becomes a catalyst for revenge
- “Ferris Wheel” by Mary Miller, in which two lonely souls are trapped on a stuck ferris wheel at a county fair
- “Date With a Stranger” by Cherie Vogelstein, in which two impetuous people meet in a diner and act out the rest of their lives over breakfast.
GROOVE — to the live music ensemble led by Ryan Corbitt playing jazz interludes.

Founded in 1993, The Firehouse Theatre Project produces contemporary theater of the United States in an authentic urban space – the 101-year-old former Station House #10 of the Richmond Fire Department.
FTP’s presentation of recent Off-Broadway shows and original works, through main stage productions, readings, and the annual Festival of New American Plays, has brought to Richmond audiences a New York City black box theater experience – but at far lower ticket prices and with greater emphasis on the actor.
