At the large, tastefully appointed Sneden’s Landing townhouse, the Deputy Mayor of New York has just shot himself. Though only a flesh wound, four couples are about to experience a severe attack of farce. Gathering for their tenth wedding anniversary, the host lies bleeding in the other room and his wife is nowhere in sight. His lawyer, Ken and wife Chris must get “the story” straight before the other guests arrive. As the confusions and miscommunications mount, the evening spins off into classic farcical hilarity. “Neil Simon makes people laugh a lot!”- USA Today. “Not only side splitting, but front and back splitting.”- NBC TV.

By Neil Simon • Directed by Kevin Slay

The brilliant Nikolai Ivanov is attracted to a beautiful young girl who has the potential to turn his life upside down. Hovering between broad comedy and tragic melodrama, this masterpiece is considered the most accessible of Chekhov’s plays.

MISS SAIGON led the 1991 Tony Awards with 11 nominations and ran for over 4,000 performances. Daring and heartbreaking, this musical tells the tragic tale of an American GI and a Vietnamese bar girl in 1970s Saigon.
The New York Times hailed the musical as “gripping entertainment of the old school…it offers lush melodies, spectacular performances…and a good cry.”

Music by Claude-Michel Schonberg • Lyrics by Alain Boublil & Richard Maltby Jr. • Book by Claude-Michel Schonberg & Alain Boublil • Directed by Jon Lawrence Rivera

This Pulitzer Prize-winning play has thrilled and captivated both stage and film audiences since its debt in 1954. Gripping, seething and sensuous, this is the story of Blanche de Bois, Stanley, Stella and New Orleans. The New York Post calls it “a play of tremendous dramatic impact” and “enormous theatrical power.” One of the greatest stories in the history of the American theatre.

By Tennessee Williams • Directed by Kari Hayter

Winner of an American Theatre Critics Award, this madcap comedy follows three actresses as they pursue their dream of performing Chekhov in Texas. In the tradition of great backstage comedies, ANTON IN SHOW BUSINESS conveys the joys, pains and absurdities of “putting on a play” at the turn of the century. “A smart, acerbic crowd pleaser… Simultaneously a love letter and a poison pen letter to the American Theatre.” - Variety.

By Jane Martin • Directed by Joseph Arnold

Ripped from the headlines of The Weekly World News, BAT BOY: THE MUSICAL is a classic love story with a hilarious bite. This delicious twist on the modern day musical comedy tells the amazing story of a strange boy with pointy ears, his struggle to find a place in a world that shuns him, and the love that can create both miracles and madness. London’s Evening Standard calls it a “riotous carnival of camp and kitsch” and a “hilarious production.”

Story & Book by Keythe Farley and Brian Fleming • Music & Lyrics by Laurence O’Keefe • Directed by Eve Himmelheber Musical Direction by Mitchell Hanlon • Choreography by William F. Lett

Opera is back! This hauntingly intoxicating opera tells the tale of Memorino, who pines for the haughty Adina (who only has eyes for Sgt. Belcore)! Fortunately, there’s a love potion, a host of other romantic surprises and the famous tenor aria, “Una furtive lacrima.” National Public Radio hails it as a “lighthearted romp.” The San Francisco Chronicle notes that, “It’s saucy, it’s sweet, it’s a stream of laughs and lovely melody…you just can’t ask for more.”

By Gaetano Donizetti • Libretto by Felice Romani • Directed by Dean Hess • Musical Direction by Janet Smith and Mark Salters • Conducted by Kimo Furumoto

In a story that could easily be ripped from today’s newspaper headlines, a young couple risks everything for love. Defying their families, keeping secrets from their best friends and pledging a love destined to survive “til death do us part,” this is Shakespeare’s bold, passionate, marvelous masterpiece. You won’t want to miss this production—a fresh look at one of the most loving, sensuous, sad and hopeful stories by the world’s greatest writer.

By William Shakespeare • Directed by Kari Hayter
