As Time Goes By
March 1 - 23, 2025
Written by Danny Brown
Directed by Noah Eisenberg
After their Grindr hook-up is snowed in, Adam and David are forced to do the unimaginable: learn each other's names. Trapped in a post-coital snow globe, they exchange quips and digs in a misguided attempt to connect. As they confront their insecurities and shared identity as gay Jewish men, they begin to expose their tightest-held secrets. Will they part ways unscathed, or does sharing yourself with an unexpected stranger mean more than you bargained for?
