Off The Lane’s next ColLab production is “Mauzy” by Derek Davidson: a haunting Appalachian musical folk tale inspired by the Noh drama “Matsukaze”. Set in the misty mountains of 1929, the play follows a traveling preacher who seeks shelter in a remote cabin inhabited by two enigmatic sisters. As stories are shared and the night unfolds, reality begins to blur with memory, myth, and ghostly longing. Blending bluegrass music, storytelling, and the supernatural world, “Mauzy” explores grief, desire, faith, and the stories we tell to survive. WE ARE SOLD OUT!

The production is being directed by Rachel Sabo-Hedges, associate directed by Anna Zheng, and features a stunning cast including Anna Grace Crawford, Tara Halpern, Miciah Wallace, Michael Kaczkowski, Jasmine Renee Pierce, Sarah Elizabeth Mesibov, and Jason Curtis Rivera.

Doors will open at 7:30pm, with the performance beginning at 8pm. The show runs approximately 90 minutes.

Greenhouse (September 17th)
2026-09-17 19:00 - 21:30
Long ago, in a provincial town outside of Rio de Janeiro, an elite doctor opens Brazil’s first ever insane asylum.

The doctor, desperate to pursue Science in a world governed by corrupt priests and old-school plutocrats, stretches his definition of madness—until, suddenly, almost the entire town is trapped in his madhouse. This building, seen either as a bastion of scientific progress or as a prison, was known as the Casa Verde, or “Green House.”

Greenhouse is an interactive theater adaptation of Machado de Assis’s celebrated novella “O Alienista.” It asks: as public institutions crumble, who can you trust, if anyone? As the figureheads of scientific progress, religion, old-school politics, and leftist revolution all battle for influence, audience members must make their own decisions—voting, chanting, and perhaps even rebelling—to determine which individuals should be in power next.

Join us for Off The Lane’s next immersive ColLab production, devised by The Elif Collective & co-produced with Pop Up! Productions on September 17th-19th at 7pm ET.
