"Confessions of a Church Organist: A Sordid Tale of Sex, Booze and  Hymns," by Tony Imperatrice.

The true life story of how an atheist  became a church organist and all the crazy adventures along the way.  Sometimes comic, sometimes tragic, and delightfully entertaining. The  story includes all the standard elements of family dysfunction,  alcoholism, and illicit sex. Not suitable for persons with religious  sensitivities. Strong language, sexual themes, drunken stories.

and

"Bullet Point," a tragedy told in the form of a PowerPoint  presentation, by Jaguar Bennett. Larry Driscoll has problems. His  company is under SEC investigation. His partner is selling him out.  Death stalks his family. His wife won?t sleep with him, and he  suspects God feels the same way. But Larry can?t think about  distractions; he?s making the most important PowerPoint presentation  
of his life. The world's first PowerPoint tragedy, "Bullet Point"  
explores how the modern tragic hero's hubris is expressed through the  technology of Total Information Control. Strong language, sexual  images, charts and graphs.

FEATURED ROGUE SPONSORS OF THE DAY!

 

 



 

 

 

The Rogue Performance Festival enters exciting year number SIX celebrating Independent Performance and Art … and the Rogue is now one of the biggest festivals in the West! This annual non-curated, non-juried festival showcases a variety of disciplines including theatre, dance, music, puppetry, storytelling, spoken word, visual art and film. Plus, 100 percent of the box-office fees go to the performers!

 

NON-CURATED & NON-JURIED simply means that no stuffy, so-called expert is going to decide what is good or what you should see. We at the Rogue believe that you, the paying audience, can decide that for yourself. We hope you enjoy the Festival and support its return next year.

RULES of the ROGUE

 

1. ALL PERFORMANCES WILL BEGIN ON TIME! Certain performers and companies will allow latecomers up to 15 minutes into the show and certain companies will not. This will be indicated in this Rogue Map and at the venues. (Audience tip: Please arrive early. The performers have worked hard on their pieces and it is RUDE, INCONSIDERATE and very PROVINCIAL to show disrespect for their efforts … it breaks concentration and affects a performance drastically!)

 

2. TICKET SALES FOR EACH PERFORMANCE WILL BEGIN HALF AN HOUR BEFORE THE PERFORMANCE BEGINS! (Audience tip: Please arrive early. Which brings us to our next rule…)

3. ALL TICKET SALES ARE FINAL. No Refunds, no exchanges, and no excuses. (Audience tip: Please arrive early. Ticket prices are cheap and 100% of the box-office sales go to the artists and performers.)

 

4. ALL PERFORMANCES ARE GENERAL ADMISSION SEATING. (Audience tip: Please arrive early. This way you can get the best seats in the house.)

 

5. ROGUE TIME IS THE OFFICIAL TIME! Official ROGUE CLOCKS are on display in front of ALL Performance Venues. (Audience tip: Please arrive early. You also may want to sync your watches to ROGUE TIME so that you can plan your entertainment day and not miss a show.)

 

6. HAVE FUN! Catch as many different shows as you can … surprise yourself by trying something different!
