In this week’s selections for cheap theatre, the past comes to life in the here and now. From captured moments in time lifted from our city’s own rich history to classic tales (both biblical and fantastical) reawakened for a modern and eager audience.

Can a small cast recreate the zany world of Alice’s Wonderland? Stay tuned.

There’s plenty of budget-friendly theatre to be had this month but we had to narrow it down for five picks under $20. So here’s what we’ve come up with. This week’s selections deal with being caught in between — a love triangle, a struggle with an alcoholic father and a cheating ex, right and wrong, private shame and public scandal. We’ve all been there, through headache, heartache and plenty of frustration. See how these stories unfold.
