The idea for EXES: The Musical was sparked when pop punk artist deegie stumbled upon her online journals spanning nearly a decade, which included details about casual and serious relationships that were too good not to indulge in. From men who made clear they never wanted to be serious, to clingy, cloying men who held her too tight, each song is an exploration of memory, accountability, and the perspective bestowed by time. EXES: The Musical takes you on a journey through deegie’s diaries that inspired the music, exploring how the expectations of the cultural fairytale myth of relationships, a sometimes obsessive need for love and validation, men’s emotional repression, and casual dating values that are often informed by rape culture all impact women as they come of age.

Hailey Beaufort, a dazzling but fragile actress, lands the coveted role of Blanche DuBois in a high-profile film adaptation of A Streetcar Named Desire. Her triumph, however, plunges her into a whirlwind of manipulation, lust, and blurred realities, as the lines between her life and her character dissolve. Surrounded by a domineering director, a predatory producer, and a magnetic co-star who thrives on emotional domination, Hailey struggles to maintain her sense of self. Her husband, Dalton, a distant and clinical presence, offers no solace, leaving her increasingly vulnerable to the exploitative undercurrents of Hollywood. Method acting becomes both her tool and her undoing, as she loses herself in Blanche’s tragic world. As rehearsals unravel into a fever dream of power struggles, seduction, and betrayal, Hailey spirals deeper into her abyss. The men around her exploit her vulnerability while she fights for control in an industry that devours the fragile and idolizes the unattainable. Through a haunting blend of surrealism and razor-sharp dialogue, Method’s Abyss examines the high price of ambition, the fragility of identity, and the dangerous allure of artistic immersion.

On Cats and Dogs and Other Family Revelations wraps big ideas in focused stories about Ella’s pets, offering glimpses of her human family and life in her place of birth, Transylvania, Romania. With her dark humor and heart, Ella takes audiences from her childhood under communist rule, to her present quirky experiences in East Harlem, using her dog and cat as reference points. Content Warning: This show contains dark humor, discussions about death, and rape. This show is not recommended for children. The cast will feature Ella Veres and her companion dog, Pandele, who said she's in it not for fame, but to pay her vet bills. Rosamunda, her cat, was asked to perform but declined. She’d rather lounge under the sofa than be in the limelight. “Being from Transylvania, is expected of me to be creepy, so I oblige, from time to time, albeit not in Hollywood style,” said Ella Veres, lead performer and director of On Cats and Dogs and Other Family Revelations. “The war in Ukraine riled my memories up, and urged me to point out how much there is to lose.” The performance will run approximately one hour. Each show is a different iteration. Ella Veres is an independent performer and writer who has been active in the New York City cultural community since 2001. Her work has been presented at the Immigrant Theater Festival, Galapagos Art Space, Manhattan Theater Source, IWAS,The Field, Theater for the New City, The Moth, Stage Left, Bowery Poetry Club, Chashama, and her present incubator, Fountain House Gallery. For several years she focused on her visual art, but in 2022, serendipity made her act in Stories From My Mother at the Theater for the New City, and thus reminded her how lovely it is to be in front of a live audience. Her current solo storytelling show, On Cats and Dogs and Other Family Revelations, was shaped during her 2023 Fountain House Gallery summer residency on Governors Island and in Adam Wade’s Magnet Theater Solo Workshop, and premiered successfully at the 2024 NYC Fringe Festival.

The idea for EXES: The Musical was sparked when pop punk artist deegie stumbled upon her online journals spanning nearly a decade, which included details about casual and serious relationships that were too good not to indulge in. From men who made clear they never wanted to be serious, to clingy, cloying men who held her too tight, each song is an exploration of memory, accountability, and the perspective bestowed by time. EXES: The Musical takes you on a journey through deegie’s diaries that inspired the music, exploring how the expectations of the cultural fairytale myth of relationships, a sometimes obsessive need for love and validation, men’s emotional repression, and casual dating values that are often informed by rape culture all impact women as they come of age.

Hailey Beaufort, a dazzling but fragile actress, lands the coveted role of Blanche DuBois in a high-profile film adaptation of A Streetcar Named Desire. Her triumph, however, plunges her into a whirlwind of manipulation, lust, and blurred realities, as the lines between her life and her character dissolve. Surrounded by a domineering director, a predatory producer, and a magnetic co-star who thrives on emotional domination, Hailey struggles to maintain her sense of self. Her husband, Dalton, a distant and clinical presence, offers no solace, leaving her increasingly vulnerable to the exploitative undercurrents of Hollywood. Method acting becomes both her tool and her undoing, as she loses herself in Blanche’s tragic world. As rehearsals unravel into a fever dream of power struggles, seduction, and betrayal, Hailey spirals deeper into her abyss. The men around her exploit her vulnerability while she fights for control in an industry that devours the fragile and idolizes the unattainable. Through a haunting blend of surrealism and razor-sharp dialogue, Method’s Abyss examines the high price of ambition, the fragility of identity, and the dangerous allure of artistic immersion.

On Cats and Dogs and Other Family Revelations wraps big ideas in focused stories about Ella’s pets, offering glimpses of her human family and life in her place of birth, Transylvania, Romania. With her dark humor and heart, Ella takes audiences from her childhood under communist rule, to her present quirky experiences in East Harlem, using her dog and cat as reference points. Content Warning: This show contains dark humor, discussions about death, and rape. This show is not recommended for children. The cast will feature Ella Veres and her companion dog, Pandele, who said she's in it not for fame, but to pay her vet bills. Rosamunda, her cat, was asked to perform but declined. She’d rather lounge under the sofa than be in the limelight. “Being from Transylvania, is expected of me to be creepy, so I oblige, from time to time, albeit not in Hollywood style,” said Ella Veres, lead performer and director of On Cats and Dogs and Other Family Revelations. “The war in Ukraine riled my memories up, and urged me to point out how much there is to lose.” The performance will run approximately one hour. Each show is a different iteration. Ella Veres is an independent performer and writer who has been active in the New York City cultural community since 2001. Her work has been presented at the Immigrant Theater Festival, Galapagos Art Space, Manhattan Theater Source, IWAS,The Field, Theater for the New City, The Moth, Stage Left, Bowery Poetry Club, Chashama, and her present incubator, Fountain House Gallery. For several years she focused on her visual art, but in 2022, serendipity made her act in Stories From My Mother at the Theater for the New City, and thus reminded her how lovely it is to be in front of a live audience. Her current solo storytelling show, On Cats and Dogs and Other Family Revelations, was shaped during her 2023 Fountain House Gallery summer residency on Governors Island and in Adam Wade’s Magnet Theater Solo Workshop, and premiered successfully at the 2024 NYC Fringe Festival.
