Rooms of Experience, Act 2
By Steffany Sommers
Starring Patty McCormack as Ada Wells
and Dan Lauria as DA Harvey Davis
The cracks start to spread.
Dana tries to outrun the case. Literally.
But every answer leads to worse questions.
She digs into Teddy’s past.
Talks to doctors.
Families.
People who trusted institutions and paid for it.
What she finds isn’t comforting.
Facilities where the vulnerable disappear.
Bruises explained away.
Medication used as control.
Silence treated like consent.
Ada’s fear wasn’t paranoia.
It was experience.
Meanwhile, the pressure builds.
Disability rights groups mobilize.
The media sharpens its narrative.
And DA Harvey Davis makes it clear.
This case is about optics, not nuance.
“No deal,” he reminds her.
Win at all costs.
Alexis keeps pushing for mercy.
Gina watches Ada waste away.
Funeral grief turns into physical collapse.
The woman who survived everything may not survive this.
Dana stands in the middle.
Her career on one side.
Her conscience on the other.
She starts to see herself in Alexis.
In Ada.
In the choices women make just to survive systems designed without them.
By the end of Act Two, Dana knows.
This trial isn’t about guilt.
It’s about who she becomes when the whole world is watching.
And there’s no clean way out.

Rooms of Experience, Act 1
By Steffany Sommers

Starring Patty McCormack as Ada Wells
and Dan Lauria as DA Harvey Davis
The call comes in at night.
An elderly woman.
A dead son.
A tank of helium left in plain sight.
Ada Wells doesn’t deny it.
She wanted his last day to be peaceful.
Enter Dana Jeffries, razor-sharp, undefeated, and hungry to prove herself.
Her boss, Harvey Davis, assigns the case for one reason: optics.
Defense attorney Alexis Martinez pushes back hard.
Detective Curtis starts questioning his own conclusions.
Gina Gordon protects Ada like family.
Carter becomes another pressure point inside the machine.
Rebecca is caught in the ripple effect.
Then Alexis shows Dana the home movies.
The real story.
The years no one saw.
The cost no one counted.
By the end of Act One, Dana walks out of Ada’s house shaken.
No longer sure the law and justice are the same thing.

Rooms of Experience
By Steffany Sommers
What if the most unforgivable crime came from the purest love?
Ada Wells is eighty-nine.
Her son, Teddy, is autistic.
She has spent sixty years protecting him from a world that never learned how to love him back.
Then one night, she makes a choice that shatters everything.
Now the system wants a conviction.
The media wants a monster.
And rising prosecutor Dana Jeffries is handed the most politically explosive case of her career.
Defense attorney Alexis Martinez knows this isn’t about murder.
It’s about a mother who outlived her child.
About institutions that failed.
About love pushed past the breaking point.
Rooms of Experience is a devastating courtroom drama about motherhood, morality, and the brutal cost of survival.
This isn’t about guilt.
It’s about understanding.

When Casey’s boyfriend and her best friend manage to destroy her life in a single, jaw-dropping betrayal, she does the mature thing.
She spirals.
Hard.
What starts as a breakup quickly becomes a full-blown existential crisis about adulthood, loyalty, and why nobody warned her that finding a best friend after 30 is harder than dating, taxes, and Pilates combined.
So Casey launches an all-out, zero-shame, dignity-optional search for a new ride-or-die across Los Angeles — while working at a deeply unhinged nostalgia pop-up, oversharing to her phone, dodging emotional landmines, and getting repeatedly called out by a neighbor who somehow knows exactly where it hurts.
Everybody Hates Casey is loud, raw, filthy-funny, and painfully honest: a comedy about heartbreak that keeps tripping over itself, adult friendship that refuses to behave, and the spectacular mess of trying to rebuild your life when the people who knew you best are suddenly gone.
It’s laugh-out-loud chaos with a bruised heart underneath. The kind of comedy where the jokes hit first, then the truth sneaks up on you later while you’re still laughing.
If you’ve ever lost your person.
If you’ve ever said “I’m fine” while clearly not being fine.
If you’ve ever realized the real love story wasn’t romantic at all.
You’re going to want front-row seats for this one.
Coming January 2026.
Cancel your plans.
You’re about to feel extremely seen.

The clock runs out.
The curtain comes up.
With opening night looming, the magic begins to fail. Bodies ache. Secrets surface. And the line between who Natalie and Ava were… and who they’ve become… finally disappears.
Natalie must confront what she’s been chasing her entire life — and what it cost her to get there.
Ava must decide whether stepping into the spotlight is worth stepping away from who she is.
The Sugar Plum Fairy is no longer just a role.
It’s a reckoning.
As rivalries peak and loyalties collide, the question is no longer who deserves the part — but who’s willing to let it go. And whether the universe will allow either girl to walk away unchanged.
Act Three is where the story lands.
Where ambition meets consequence.
Where magic demands payment.
Because sometimes you get exactly what you wished for.
And sometimes the bravest thing you can do…
is give it back.
It’s still funny.
It’s still sharp.
But now it’s honest.
