A huge thank you to the St Pete Catalyst for their coverage of this historic partnership. Here is what our festival leaders have to say about this collaboration:

Alan Mohney Jr. (The Off-Central): “The St. Pete New Works Festival is a necessity for the growth of the arts here in St. Pete... We are thrilled to bring new stories to our community.”

Avery Anderson (Story Keepers): “We are showing that through collaboration, St. Pete is a collective sanctuary where artists can take risks and find their voice.”

Erica Sutherlin (The Studio at 620): “By partnering with our peers, we are ensuring that St. Petersburg remains a beacon for diversity, innovation, and the next generation of great American stories.”

Eric Davis (freeFall Theatre Company): “This creates an open format for organizations to show work that simply needs to be new... It should be a fun and varied mix of events.”

ONE LAST TIME.

This Sunday is the final chance to experience The Pink Unicorn — a one-woman performance that has sparked conversation, packed rooms, and lingered long after the lights go down.

Performed just a few feet from the audience in community spaces across St. Pete, The Pink Unicorn tells the story of Trisha Lee, a Christian widow forced to confront what love really means when her child comes out as genderqueer and her world begins to fracture. What unfolds is funny, raw, uncomfortable, generous — and deeply human.

Audiences have shown up and can't stop talking about this unique expereince.

Now there’s one last opportunity to be in the room.

🦄 The Pink Unicorn
📅 Sunday, Feb 8 at 2 PM
📍 First United Methodist Church of Pinellas Park
🎟️ Pay What You Can — because this story should be accessible to everyone

Part confession. Part kitchen-table storytelling. Part revival of the human spirit.

If you’ve been meaning to go — this is your moment.
