Laser and his friends from the world of gaming and comedy sit down to play a game of Fiasco, and improvise a brand-new story full of conflict, hilarity and almost certain death.
Episodes
Being a hero is all about location, location, location. And in Pinnacle City, Buck Lonesome, Polly Payne, Danny Douley and The Dramatic Fox are all about the drama. And location. Crap, I'm afraid we may not quite be as competent as we thought we were.
Playset: Heroes of Pinnacle City

Turtles of Fire were the greatest band in the world. Or, sort of. There's a lot of drama. Is any of it real? Really, it's quite hard to tell. Starring Sara Caplan, Josh Closs, Amy Vorpahl, Emily Henry, and Laser - many of whom are real life rock stars!
This one is sort of like the Witcher, except gayer and somehow with simultaneously more murder and less monsters. Buck, Bella, Mort and Mouse are adventurers, there's a honey-based billionaire, a ditzy librarian, an unsolved kingly murder and a whole lot of suspicion. Also, a song.
STARRING:
Sara Caplan
Harry-Anne Bentley
Riley Silverman
and me, Laser.
What would happen if Bridgerton was absolutely chock full o'werewolves and also written by a 100% trans crew?

The Red Rocks West Equity Playhouse in Boulder, Colorado has a lot of stuff going for it. An ambitious lighting designer, a meddling costume designer, the son of Nic Cage, an a diva of an actress who is amazing, as long as she can get the night off from waitressing at the local diner. This production of "Kittens" is going to go off without a hitch—unless something goes wrong. Nothing will go wrong. Right?
