MEN ON BOATS, the critically-acclaimed comedy which premiered at Clubbed Thumb's 2015 Summerworks Festival, announced today casting for its return this summer in a co-production by Clubbed Thumb and Playwrights Horizons.

ROOSEVELVIS is the latest production of the TEAM, a Brooklyn-based ensemble dedicated to making new work about the experience of living in America today. Fusing stage and screen, music and dance, humor and pathos, and gender bending portrayals, the show makes liberal use of film to chronicle a fanciful road trip from the Badlands to Graceland, one woman's much-needed journey of self-discovery.

The American Repertory Theater (A.R.T.) and OBERON are pleased to present the TEAM's RoosevElvis, created by Rachel Chavkin, Libby King, Jake Margolin, and Kristein Sieh with Matt Hubbs, Andrew Schneider, and Nick Vaughan, directed by Rachel Chavkin. The production runs May 6-29 at OBERON, 2 Arrow Street, Cambridge.

Following the success of their production of Ancient Lives at the Kitchen in 2015, Half Straddle, New York's captivating Obie-winning experimental theater troupe that has developed an international following, premieres Ghost Rings, a theatrical pop song cycle that burrows and soars through the twisted layers of love among best friends and a family band of yesteryear. Featuring Tina Satter, Chris Giarmo, Erin Markey, and Kristen Sieh, this world premiere will be presented for two weeks only, April 22 - 30, 2016, at New York Live Arts.
