An impromptu 10 year reunion puts friends under fire when Vince, a pot dealing fire fighter, tries to get Jon, an aspiring film maker, to confess to the past. A suspenseful, high-stakes drama, "Tape" is a look at how perception can color memory and that the past is sometimes not what you remember.
Performed with “Waiting Life” – a new one act about dating in New York City from both sides of the coin.
It’s a night of theatre that looks at relationships from different perspectives – for better and for worse.
