To our beloved supporters of Basement by Michael Hagins!

We wanted to express our deep and unending thank you for being a part of this first full production by Roly Poly Productions.  This entire process has been a labor of love on all parts and we will now be working to build another lovely show over the course of the next year. 

If you enjoyed our show and would like to vote for us, please click HERE!

If you would like to hear about our reading series and other small-scale projects, please let me know or you can visit our IN THE WORKS page.  Note that we are still arranging and organizing our site to include the reading series, co-productions, theatrical services, and, of course, main stages.

Again, thank you so much!  We are thrilled by the love and support from each and every one of you.  You've made it possible for us to take the next step in the formation of this company:  understanding who we are, what works, and what we want to create.

With much love,

Janet and Andy

ROLY POLY PRODUCTIONS takes us on a wild ride in HORSE, written and
directed by Janet Bentley with choreography by Gus Solomons, Jr.


Skin care products work on your skin … what about a “life care product?” In HORSE, a new client brings more to the table than just a unique skin care formula. The stage is set for a product testing experiment that morphs into a hallucinogenic journey redefining reality and identity. The production features choreography by Gus Solomons, Jr. who has performed with Donald McKayle, Martha Graham, Merce Cunningham, his own companies, and appeared in John Turturro’s feature film “Romance & Cigarettes.”
