Out of Order (comedy)

written by English playwright Ray Cooney
directed by Mark Hilgert

As many other Ray Cooney plays, it features a lead actor (in this case a junior UK minister) who has to lie his way out of an embarrasing situation (in this case a planned adultery with a secretary) with the help of an innocent side-kick (in this case the minister’s personal private secretary) who gets more and more embroiled in the increasingly tangled tale improvised by the lead character as events unfold. The action takes place in a suite in a posh London hotel and revolves around accidents caused by a defective window sash.  

Forever Plaid: Plaid Tidings (musical)

written by Stuart Ross
directed by Liz Enloe

Plaid Tidings offers the best of Forever Plaid tied-up in a nifty package with a big Christmas bow on top. Filled with Christmas standards that have all been “Plaiderized,” our boys are back to do their Christmas Special. At first they aren’t sure why they’ve returned, but a phone call from the heavenly Rosemary Clooney lets them know that they’re needed to put a little harmony into a discordant world.

Kindertransport (drama)

written by Diane Samuels
directed by Lee Cox

A touching piece of history concerning the thousands of children who were evacuated to England from Germany in an attempt to “save them” from the Holocaust. The theatrical interpretation goes beyond history and examines the pain and passion of all mother/daughter relationships.

Shirley Valentine (Bonus Show)
FREE to Season Ticket holders!

written by Willy Russell

A one-woman play taking the form of a monologue by a middle-aged, working class Liverpool housewife, focusing on her life before and after a transforming holiday abroad.

King o' the Moon (family comedy)

written by Tom Dudzick
directed by Diana Enloe

It’s the irreverent ‘60s...1969 to be exact. And in this hilarious and moving sequal to last year’s hot production of Over the Tavern the absolute certanties of the ‘50s are swept away in a tidal wave of revolution, rebellion and protest. Apollo 11 is about to land on the moon..., while the Pazinski family is just hoping to land on their feet.

Curtains (murder mystery/musical comedy)

music and lyrics by Kander and Ebb
based on a book by Rupert Holmes
directed by Sue Mueller

Curtains is a musical send-up of backstage murder mystery plots, set in 1959 Boston, Massachusetts and follows the fallout when the supremely untalented star of Robbin’ Hood of the Old West is murdered during her opening night curtain call. Can a police detective who moonlights as a musical theatre fan save the show, solve the case, and maybe even find love before the show reopens, without getting killed himself?
