Written by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Tracy Letts and directed by Jason Koonce, The Minutes takes audiences inside a small-town city council meeting where nothing is quite what it seems.

What starts as an ordinary meeting quickly turns into a hilarious, mysterious, and increasingly unsettling look at politics, power, secrets, and the stories we choose to tell about our history. When a newly elected council member starts asking questions about the missing minutes from a previous meeting, the answers reveal more than anyone bargained for!

With election season upon us, there's no better time to experience this sharp political satire. Full of unexpected twists, outrageous characters, and plenty of laughs, The Minutes will leave you talking long after the final curtain!
