2025-26 Season

Can’t We All Just Get Along!

In a world where discord is the only noise, there are plays to remind us that solace lies in those around us, and if given the chance, conflict can turn into conversation.

This season, Alley Repertory Theater invites you to places people call home.
To the rocky shore of the Sound.
To the wide open plains of the prairie.
To the fading light of a drive-in movie.

These aren’t just places – they are thresholds.
Between what was and what’s coming.
Between adolescence and adulthood.
Between what was always there and what’s gone missing.
Between farmers and ranchers.

Here we are pulled into stories of growing up, falling in love, and reaching for connection in a world that doesn’t always reach back.

Join ART as we pull on our boots and wade into the deep, dark, and unexpected waters of discourse, connection, unconditional love, and community.

  • Monsters of the American Cinema

    by Christian St. Croix

    When Remy Washington inherits a run-down drive-in movie theater, he doesn’t just inherit a screen and a parking lot—he also takes on the unexpected responsibility of raising his late husband’s straight, white teenage son.

    A Black gay man, Remy desperately wants to do right by Pup, but in an age of social media, racism, and homophobia, the challenge is steep. Creatures from the Deep Lagoon might be their only hope.

  • Deep Blue Sound

    by Abe Koogler

    On an island in the Pacific Northwest, the community gathers to address the disappearance of the local orca pod. Friendships fray, tumors grow, new love blooms, wood is chopped, and poems are written. The seasons change.

    But what about the whales? Is their absence just a seasonal glitch, or is it a sign of our collective failure to take care of the Earth? DEEP BLUE SOUND is a funny and moving play about the connections we make—and the ones we long to make—to other people, and to the world around us.
