Welcome to the OCP 2021 Virtual Season!
Dear OutCast Patrons:
We made it through our 2020 - 10th Anniversary Season "that never was" and we thank you for sticking with us during this difficult time. While our scheduled season did not happen, we are glad that we were able to offer a way to stay connected with our 2020 Streaming Season of "old favorites" that we had filmed as part of our New Works Project and World Premieres. Since they were not recorded with performance in mind, we do realize that the quality was not always the best. We were happy to have some way of staying in touch with our patrons and make a little money to offset our on-going costs (rent, etc.) that needed to be met despite the theater being shut down due to the pandemic. We even reached some new audience members who were able to join us from as far away as Tel Aviv, Israel. We have learned a lot since then about playing in the digital world. In the process, we purchased equipment, created our own YouTube channel for streaming, and feel prepared to step into brand new productions while we wait to get back into the Black Box itself!
So, rather than attempting to create and announce an entire season, we are approaching 2021 one month at a time, while sticking to our usual production calendar (March, May, June, September & October) with some extras thrown in as well. This way, we hope we can easily pivot back to live theater easily when we get the OK.
In this light, we are excited to offer our first original virtual production coming in March. Through our contacts with playwrights and their networks, we invited submissions for short plays (no more than 10-20 minutes) with the theme "Life During the Pandemic". Our focus is putting together about a 90-minute production - a mix of funny and serious peeks into life in a pandemic world. Already we have received enough submissions for several shows but we will find a good balance, cast, schedule virtual rehearsals, then film/record, edit and stream several performances in March. We look forward to seeing you there!

We still have $25,000 to go and although we are applying for arts grants, we still rely on donations from supporters like you and ask that you consider contributing to our fundraising effort and Phase 2 goal of $10,000 by either clicking on the "Donate Button" below or sending a check to

I was in the opening night audience for SOMEONE WHO'LL WATCH OVER ME. Once again, OutCast has staged an outstanding, edgy production. Stellar performances by the three actors! Bravo Sandy and all. Don't miss this play!
