Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute – NY

Four high schoolers grapple with grief and pass the time at their old elementary school's playground the morning of their friend Ben's funeral. Falkland's Law, written and directed by Shira Behore, is a coming-of-age story about grief, friendship, and how life can so easily change in an instance.

LSTFI is proud to present our graduating 2-Year Conservatory students in their final showcase.

Kate’s sister Anne wakes up one morning to discover a sheep’s head between her shoulders. Directed by Lauren Spencer, Kate Crackernuts follows the two sisters on their quest to return Anne’s true head to its proper place. The journey is sidetracked, however, by Kate’s obsession with a slim raver-boy who has a nasty little addiction. Tickets available at katecrackernuts.eventbrite.com.
