Taryn Anderson wants to talk about race. And, specifically, how race intersects with the important and difficult issues we're facing in our time. In her adaptation of the O'Neill piece, Abortion: A Race Redux, she wants to foster a dialog that will continue long after the curtain drops.

This production of "Abortion" a short play by Eugene O'Neill, is geared toward asking the audience and ourselves these questions. Is an audience ever really color blind and does race, stereotypes and socio-economic status play a part in their perception of a characters guilt or innocence?
Megen Musegades is tired of the lack of good stories for women in Hollywood. So, she's taking a short story by Shannan Rouss and adapting it into her film The Three of Us to showcase two complex women.
Getting fed up with the lack of complex female roles, Megen's goal in all her screenplays is to make sure that the female characters take the lead. In a male dominated industry, many stories on the screen today still portray women as one-dimensional.
