Online this week: An election-themed Zoom play, plus live improv shows and interactive children's adventures to divert attention from the vote counts.

"This was our attempt to create community in a void, and also check in with beloved colleagues and artists we didn't even know. Our grief made us long for playfulness and invention, or some other of strange yet welcome respite from our daily heartbreak. And a brief hiatus from all the Zooming! For me personally, Zoom theatre has felt like an endless memorial service for a very beloved, very deceased family member. We wanted this experience to be the opposite of that." - Sheila Callaghan
