Reshma and Arya are blood related cousins who have teamed up to make a piece of theatre like nothing you've seen on your phone. "The Cheasecake Factory Part 2" is a murder mystery courtroom drama/ absurdist dark comedy stemming from the complex Gen Alpha mind of Arya Dsouza (age 12). Join us as we shatter narrative structures, create too many characters to reasonably fit on a stage, and bask in the unnerving humor of a child who did elementary school on Zoom. A penny will be collected at the door. If you don’t have a penny, a nickel will do. NO DIMES.

Featuring:

Arya Dsouza is 12 years old. She goes to Wiseburn Middle School. She has a pet, which is a menacing four-legged spider. She likes plants, RPG maker horror games, and writing. She dreams of living in a condo in Seattle. She’s not sure what she wants to be if she grows up. Perhaps a psychologist.

Reshma Meister is Arya's cousin. Arya's dad is Reshma's mom's brother. Their first project titled "How to Not be Dead" was birthed after Arya saw a video of "Fool's Gold" (a 2023 spaghetti fest show by Gabe Ross that featured Reshma). Arya said, "that's a play?" Reshma said, "Yeah. If you could make a play what would it be about?" Then she typed everything Arya said. The rest is her-story...
