Cheking-In is a subtly romantic comedy that comprises two interrelated stand-alone stories examining the moment and aftermath of a failed romantic connection that comes at the end of Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard. Our idea of ourselves often stands in the way between us and finding love. How do we get past our own hang-ups, our regrets, and our decisions to become people we believe our worthy of love? Cheking-In is an intimate and immersive exploration of how to take the next step in our lives.
Written and directed by Martin French
Featuring: Martha Frazier, Jake Minton, Bailey Preston, and Zach Trinkle

We are excited to announce the productions for 2026 - our 10th year!
In late January/early February, we continue our season-opening relationship with the Kleinhelter Gallery in New Albany when we present Cheking-In, a new romantic comedy comprising of two short plays featuring characters from Anton Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard, and directed by Artistic Co-Director Martin French. In early June, we go to the Opera Center in downtown Louisville for You Are The Government Inspector!, a silly interactive and immersive promenade production. French will be devising this piece with the cast, basing it on Nikolai Gogol’s satirical comedy, Government Inspector. Finally, towards the end of the summer we present Yerma, the second installment in our trilogy of Federico García Lorca productions, co-produced with Teatro Tercera Llamada. As with La Casa de Bernarda Alba/The House Of Bernarda Alba, Yerma will be performed in both Spanish and English, and will be adapted and directed by Artistic Co-Director Jay Marie Padilla-Hayter.
