Now in its fourteenth year, Dexter Drama Directing Series’ (affectionately referred to as “3D”) purpose is to showcase the power of student-driven work. All of the one-acts within this series are student-directed by upperclassmen and, as always for Dexter Drama, the productions are student-acted and student-crewed. We are very proud of this unique production that celebrates both student leadership and student writing; since its debut twelve years ago, the "3D" Series has always had at least one student playwright. We feel lucky to have students within Dexter who have the talent, drive, and ambition to meet this challenge and affirm the DDC's mission to encourage students to explore & experience all areas of theatre.

Each show will get to perform twice the weekend of November 20th through 23rd! Each night is sure to be filled with excitement and laughter.

See you there!​

Decisions, Decisions

Aiden Zeglis

Two roommates with opposite views on decisions and consequentialism invite their new neighbor over for dinner, but when a powerful Chance god rolls the dice on their night, we observe two divergent timelines of the dinner unravel at the same time. Whether your life falls apart by habit or constantly changes for the better, every person has to consider at one point in their life: "What could go wrong?”

Dead Lobster

Written and Directed by Brendan Sedlar
Stage Managed by Piper Gzym

A young man with red hair sitting outdoors on a log, looking off into the distance with a contemplative expression, surrounded by green trees and plants.

When you’re delivering packages, you never know who’s waiting behind the next door... an old ex, a quirky neighbor, or maybe someone with more questionable intentions. Logan, a jaded veteran, swears she’s seen it all, while Sam, the eager rookie, insists it’s all about keeping the right attitude. Together, these two delivery drivers cross paths with all kinds of people in a series of sharp, surprising vignettes. In this job, one thing’s certain: the unexpected is always on the other side. Knock Knock is a fast-paced comedy that always delivers.
