Ordinary Days
Music and Lyrics by Adam Gwon
Directed by Kendall Jeonson
Music Direction by Cheryl Forest Morganson

What if the most important moments of your life are not the big ones?

Ordinary Days is a fully sung, four-person musical about finding beauty in the moments we almost miss. Two unexpected friendships. Two love stories. Four people trying to figure out who they are, what they want, and whether the life they are already living is worth paying attention to.

Intimate, funny, and quietly devastating, Ordinary Days is the kind of show that makes you want to call someone you love on the way home.

Running time: approximately 80-90 minutes, no intermission.

Announcing the cast of our next show…

Harry & the Thief by Sigrid Gilmer
Directed by Lisa Gaye Dixon
October 22 – November 1, 2026

Station Theatre is proud to announce the cast of Harry & the Thief, the sixth production of Season 54.

A genre-bending comedy that jumps between Harriet Tubman's fight for freedom in the 1850s and a present-day scheme to arm her with 21st-century weapons and rewrite history, Harry & the Thief skewers both antebellum plantation mythology and revolutionary fantasy with equal, gleeful irreverence. Playwright Sigrid Gilmer blends the swagger of an action movie with the camp of a civil war epic in a script that is unafraid to go for the joke even in its darkest moments.

The cast is as follows:

Anita - Anissa Reinoso
Harry - Ciobhan Dunn
Mimi - Dev Wilder
Jeremy - Markese Marshall
Vivian - Camilla Black
Knox - Marshawn Bingham
Shilo - Estella Samii
Maddox - Huey Bivens
Overseer Jones - Jace Jamison
Orry Main Scarlet - Aaron Clark
Swing - Robin Berns
