June 4 Star Solo Show Festival
Town Meeting
By Cody Sullivan
June 6-8 at 7 pm
Should they cut down a dead branch from a beech tree that hangs over the street? This is the first, seemingly easy question at the Provincetown Town Meeting. Yet after four hours of debate whether or not it's insensitive to use a microphone because of people suffering from tinnitus, they are no closer to an answer.
Cody Sullivan, a Ptown local, portrays all the characters in this meeting, from the Moderator, to the Town manager, to the three young kids taking a Civics in Action class. The only place you will find more characters than Sullivan's play, is the actual Provincetown Town Meeting.

Too Fat for China
By Phoebe Potts
June 27-29 at 7 pm
Phoebe Potts debuted TOO FAT FOR CHINA to standing room only crowds at The Gloucester Stage Company in Gloucester MA in 2019. Thanks in part to winning a Live Arts Boston grant from the Boston Foundation, Potts went on to fill houses in Boston, Watertown and at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland. TOO FAT FOR CHINA won the "Best Storytelling Show" at the United Solo Show Festival in 2023 in NYC. TOO FAT FOR CHINA is the sequel to Potts' critically acclaimed graphic novel "Good Eggs" that New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast called "sometimes funny, sometimes sad, but always honest, intelligent and completely involving." Potts is a native of Brooklyn, NY, where everyone was indignant about something, even before breakfast. You can follow along with Phoebe at toofatforchina.com.
