A double bill of new works by local writers includes Kat Bedrij's film Better Now and Gabrielle Reisman's I Want Sex All the Time. The play is a humorous and warm take on famous female theatrical characters, including Shakespeare's Cleopatra and King Lear's daughters, revisiting their plights from their own perspectives.
