Piese de Rob Ackerman

Airborn
A teen love story. A coming-of-age thriller. A play about passion, science, and the hazards of doing what you love.
Bait and Tackle
Disconnect
When marketing consultant Steven Gold invites near strangers to dinner, his wife Patty helps put their home in order. But she cant do the same for her husband. Just back from a business trip to Chicago, Steve is rattled by encounters with his childhood friend Artie and his overbearing client Peter Hamish. When the alluring Jane and her reticent spouse Fred arrive, the safe shell protecting hosts and guests starts to crumble. Goaded by the women they love and haunted by memories they can no longer suppress, two men confront the lies of their lives. Hilarious and harrowing, Disconnect explores marriage, friendship and passion in the age of telecommunications. With so many flashy new ways to communicate, why are we still so bad at it?
Icarus of Ohio
ICARUS OF OHIO, is about the triumph of youth, love, and art. If the original myth is a cautionary tale about the consequences of youthful exuberance, this retelling revels in the potential of youth to transform the world.
Loons
A midsummer seventy-first birthday celebration for Phyllis brings her family together, but they can't help coming apart. Loons is a tale of love, libido, and longing over one afternoon on an island in a lake in New Hampshire.
Origin of the Species
Tabletop
During an afternoon in the studio of director/cameraman Marcus Gordon, a crew struggles to get two shots for a fast-food commercial about a thick, pink drink. The producer and assistant director, Andrea, is trying to save her boss' slipping reputation. She ignores the objections of property master Jeffrey and permits the creative input of Ron, an earnest entry-level employee. Ron believes in the better possibilities of advertising and engages the others in an escalating debate about how and why we sell and are sold to. His artistic approach to the craft of commerce threatens Jeffrey, infuriates Marcus, yet yields surprising results. Meanwhile, veteran gaffer Oscar and quiet assistant cameraman Dave clash in their separate efforts to tear free from this supposedly creative but ultimately oppressive workplace. Pressures build, tempers flare and egos collide as six American workers fight for their lives and livelihoods.
Things That Go POP In The Night
Ce e mai terifiant și mai isterizant decât invazia extratereștrilor, nebuni înarmați și doi bărbați îmbrăcați ca Betty White și Lindsay Lohan?
Volleygirls
Volleygirls spikes a lively, heartfelt look at a down-and-out girls high school volleyball team. Following a string of losses and facing their biggest rival, the girls of Saint Agnes hatch a wild plan to turn their flailing team around-while helping their self-defeating coach to confront his "loseritis." The action isn't limited to the court, though, as parents play out their own dramas in the stands. Fast-paced and funny, Volleygirls captures the spirit and passion of everything you love about team sports.
