"True Crime" to premiere at Chain Theatre Winter One-Act Festival!

Shannon and Tammy are nerdy, middle-aged friends and cohosts of the moderately successful murder podcast, “True Crime.” When content becomes predictable and they find themselves competing with everyone from Dateline to TikTok, they consider becoming part of their next story–with deadly consequences.

Sarah is beyond thrilled to announce that her play, “True Crime” will have its world premiere at the Chain Theatre Winter One-Act Festival in the heart of Manhattan!

Chain Theatre Winter One-Act Festival

February 6-March 1, 2026

312 W 36th St, Floors 3 & 4

“True Crime” is a scrutiny of society’s obsession with murder as entertainment, and our desensitization to violence as a result. Themes of friendship and betrayal are prevalent throughout this sharp satire, as told through the lens of two female friends and podcasters.

Stay tuned for announcements on our cast, creative team, and performance dates!
