Nu Sass Productions

Nu Sass has been supporting marginalized genders in the DC region since 2009.

Nu Sass Productions strives to encourage marginalized genders in all aspects of theater, especially in those roles traditionally dominated by cis-men. Nu Sass explores how disregarding prescribed genders can change the overall experience for the audience. Above all, Nu Sass aims to create engaging, thought-provoking art while being a responsible local and global citizen.

Nu Sass Productions was founded by Aubri O’Connor and Emily Todd in 2009.

UNCLE FUNSY PRODUCTIONS

Cicada-like, Uncle Funsy Productions emerged in 2015, shed its skin, and bored its way into the sweet soft bark that is the Capital Fringe Festival with Wombat Drool, which was surprisingly successful, playing to sold out crowds and warranting an extension. There is no accounting for taste. Undeterred by success, Uncle Funsy Productions returned to the Capital Fringe Festival in 2016 with One Mutual Happiness, a laugh and tear filled drama featuring David S. Kessler and Rich O'Meara, composer extraordinaire. Once again, it was a great success. David, Rich and Kevin O’Meara presented Numesthesia, a comedy with music about synesthesia and perception at the Capital Fringe Festival in 2017. Yet another unexpected success. One day we’ll run into discerning audiences.  

In June of 2019, Uncle Funsy and Nu Sass Productions joined forces to present Gwen and Ida: The Object is of No Importance, a drama about art, creativity, obsession, and connection. Another success. Gee whiz, when will this madness end?         

Covid shutdowns slowed your old Uncle Funsy down, but, as further evidence that the world is slowly spiraling down the drain, this spring Uncle Funsy and Nu Sass will present an expanded, two act Wombat Drool. Perhaps this time we will finally succeed at failure. Join us for a play that promises to amuse, entertain, and move. Or not.
