SUMMARY:From Podcast to Stage: Open-Door Playhouse Headlines Hollywood Festival
DESCRIPTION:From Podcast to Stage: Open-Door Playhouse Headlines Hollywood Festival\nHOLLYWOOD\, CA – After producing nearly 200 audio dramas for a global audience\, the award-winning Open-Door Playhouse is returning to the physical stage. For the second consecutive year\, the company will present five of its most acclaimed works live at the Stephanie Feury Studio Theatre as a headline act for the 30 Minutes or Less Festival this January. \nFounded by filmmaker Bernadette Armstrong during the 2020 lockdowns\, Open-Door Playhouse has evolved from a creative lifeline for artists into a decorated podcast theater\, earning a Communicator Award for Custody and a Webby Award nomination for What’s Prison Like. \nThe Live Performance Schedule\nThe festival presents a fast-paced “concentrated” theater experience\, with each program curated to deliver high impact in under half an hour. \nSaturday\, January 17\, 2026 | 6:15 PM\n\n\nShe Was Dick’s Tracie \n\n\nWriter: Sandra Cruze | Director: Bernadette Armstrong \n\n\nThe Story: A noir-inspired mystery where a senior detective and a coroner investigate the murder of a “dynamite redhead.” As the investigation unfolds\, the investigators realize they each share a secret\, personal connection to the victim. \n\n\n\n\nSunday\, January 18\, 2026 | 2:30 PM\n\n\nThe End \n\n\nWriter: Patricia Motto | Director: Gary B. Lamb \n\n\nThe Story: A poignant reflection on the inevitability of fate and the things that truly “get us” in the end. \n\n\n\n\nFast Moving Consumer Goods \n\n\nWriter: Lori Londagin | Director: Rachel Berney Needleman \n\n\nThe Story: A dark comedy centered on a life-changing\, unexpected encounter triggered by a call to a suicide hotline. \n\n\n\n\nSaturday\, January 24\, 2026 | 7:00 PM\n\n\n(UN)Drinkable \n\n\nWriter: Dana Hall | Director: Bernadette Armstrong \n\n\nThe Story: A powerful dramatization of the Flint\, Michigan water crisis. The play examines the human cost of the 2014 water source switch\, which led to widespread lead poisoning and legionnaires’ disease. \n\n\nThe Context: The production highlights the intersection of public policy and systemic racism\, noting that the city of Flint was 54% Black at the time of the crisis\, a demographic reality that many advocates argue slowed the government’s response to the contamination. \n\n\n\n\nWill’s Dramaturg \n\n\nWriter: Rich Rubin | Director: Kim Hlavac \n\n\nThe Story: A comedic “what if” scenario featuring a modern-day New York theater pro traveling back to 1594 London to give a young William Shakespeare some unsolicited script notes.

SUMMARY:Stanley Clarke
DESCRIPTION:Stanley Clarke is a towering figure in modern music\, widely regarded as one of the most virtuosic and influential bassists in history for his revolutionary work on both the electric bass and the acoustic double bass. His career began in the early 1970s\, where he quickly became an in-demand sideman for jazz greats like Horace Silver\, Art Blakey\, and Stan Getz\, before co-founding the seminal jazz-fusion band Return to Forever with Chick Corea and Lenny White\, a group that would define the instrumental intensity of the genre. Clarke is perhaps best known for his landmark 1976 solo album\, School Days\, which\, along with Jaco Pastorius’s debut\, forever changed the role of the bass guitar\, proving it could be a dynamic\, melodic\, and harmonically rich lead instrument through his pioneering use of slapping\, popping\, and tapping techniques. Beyond fusion\, he has navigated genres with ease\, forming the Grammy-winning R&B/funk collaboration The Clarke/Duke Project with keyboardist George Duke\, and has established a highly successful second career composing scores for over 70 films and television shows\, including classics like Boyz n the Hood and The Transporter\, solidifying his legacy as an NEA Jazz Master and a true giant of the four-stringed instrument.

SUMMARY:Jazz Legends: SIMON PHILLIPS • Protocol V feat: Alex Sill\, Ernest Tibbs\,Otmaro Ruiz & Jacob Scensey
DESCRIPTION:Jazz Legends: Simon Phillips • Protocol V is a high-octane masterclass in jazz-fusion\, featuring the legendary\, Grammy-nominated drummer and composer Simon Phillips at the Catalina Jazz Club on January\, 2026.

This iteration of the band\, which debuted on the acclaimed 2022 album Protocol V\, showcases a powerhouse lineup of virtuosos including longtime electric bassist Ernest Tibbs\, veteran keyboardist Otmaro Ruiz (known for his work with John McLaughlin)\, and the “fearless” young talents Phillips discovered: guitarist Alex Sill and saxophonist Jacob Scesney.

SUMMARY:The Runarounds
DESCRIPTION:The Runarounds is a breakout five-piece alternative rock band that has successfully blurred the lines between fiction and reality\, currently touring in support of their self-titled Amazon Prime Video series. Originally formed in 2021 after a massive casting call for the Netflix hit Outer Banks\, the group—consisting of William Lipton (vocals/guitar)\, Axel Ellis (vocals/guitar)\, Jeremy Yun (guitar)\, Jesse Golliher (bass)\, and Zendé Murdock (drums)—quickly evolved from an on-screen ensemble into a genuine touring powerhouse.
