━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

A Certain Kind of Light tells the story of several young adults at a house party, as each attendee becomes rapidly consumed by excess and hedonism. In the hours following this event, they are forced to confront their many vices in increasingly urgent, and ultimately surrealistic, contexts. This world premiere is written by local playwright Joey Urreta.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

From the Fringe is The Ringwald Theatre’s bold new initiative dedicated to spotlighting the next generation of theatrical voices. Known for our daring and provocative productions, The Ringwald now turns the spotlight toward up-and-coming playwrights and creators with this small-batch performance series. Curated with a taste for the unconventional, From the Fringe champions fresh, fearless works that push boundaries, challenge norms, and crackle with urgency. These limited-run productions offer emerging artists the opportunity to test the limits of their creativity in an intimate, experimental setting—where raw stories come to life, risks are rewarded, and fringe becomes the forefront.

This is theatre at its most immediate, most intimate, and most Ringwald.
