Missed Connections: A Festival of One-Acts
April 15 - 18, 2026
Missed Connections is an evening of six one-act plays—including three world premieres by CSUSM Theatre students. From grief and lust to ambition, racial profiling, and found family, these stories amuse, challenge, and surprise—ultimately asking how we find our way back to one another when connection feels lost.
