This month, the Animus Theatre Company presents Collected Shorts, an evening of seven one-act plays by Pulitzer Prize finalist Theresa Rebeck (Seminar, Omnium Gatherum, Mauritius and season one of NBC’s Smash).

The production marks the directorial stage debut of Pamela Adlon (who TV audiences know and love for her performances in Californication, Louie, Better Things and King of the Hill).
Here's a first-look glimpse at two of the seven shows presented.
