The Sunshine Boys
Argenta Contemporary Theater 405 Main St., North Little RockAl and Willie as “Lewis and Clark” were top-billed vaudevillians for over forty years. Now they aren’t even speaking.

Tennessee Rising: The Dawn of Tennessee Williams
The Joint 301 Main St #102, North Little RockWritten and performed by Jacob Storms, Tennessee Rising sheds light on the unexplored, formative years (1939-1945) of Tom Williams as he metamorphoses into his most iconic character – America’s acclaimed playwright, Tennessee Williams – and grapples with first love, professional triumph and torment, heartbreak, and ultimately “the catastrophe of success.” The play was originally directed for the stage by Alan Cumming. https://www.jacobstorms.net/
