spurn II: April 2002 - Collective: Unconscious (Lower East Side, NYC)
spurn North Carolina: July 19th, 2002
spurn III: Dec. 2002 - Vital Theatre (42nd & 9th Ave, NYC)

Like a returning old friend, spurn again performed at Collective: Unconscious in April 2002. (Granted, the friend makes you slightly uncomfortable and constantly talks about things like bukkake and blumpkins, but an old friend nonetheless) spurn was also invited to perform at Collective's year-end fund-raising gala. Because people just can't get enough of that spurn.

spurn's comedic philosophy spread quickly (much like the meme about the urine content of restaurant mints). On July 19th, 2002, spurn debuted in Manteo, North Carolina with an all-new cast and crew. Our illustrious Stage Manager (spurn I, II & V) Ry Pepper, emigrated to North Carolina to work pyrotechnics on the country’s longest, I running outdoor "symphonic drama", The Lost Colony. While there, Ry took it upon herself to direct and produce a one-night-only performance of spurn. The show was performed in the Morrison Grove, where actors and technicians who work for The Lost Colony reside.

In December, spurn officially became an off-Broadway sensation when they moved to the Vital Theatre, part of the historic 42nd Street Theatre Row district. A holiday-themed show was presented although that lessened the angst and bitterness not one iota. In fact, this is recognized as the darkest show in spurn history, with more than the usual helping of pathos.
