Announcing Our 2010-2011 Season Lineup


Steel Magnolia's

  • Written by : Robert Harling
  • Directed by: Beth Campbell

The action is set in Truvy's beauty salon in Chinquapin, Louisiana, where all the ladies who are "anybody" come to have their hair done. The play is alternately hilarious and touching -- drawing on strength and love to give the play, and its characters, a special quality to make them truly touching, funny and marvelously amiable company in the good times and the bad.

September 10, 11, 12, 17, 18, 19, 2010.



Scrooge

  • Book, music and lyrics by Leslie Bricusse
  • Directed by Jonny Price

In 1970, the renowned writer-composer-lyricist Leslie Bricusse adapted the classic Charles Dickens tale, A Christmas Carol, into the hit screen musical "Scrooge!" The story begins on the street of London at Christmas time, where locals are gathered to celebrate the holiday season. Their joyous holiday spirit, however is soon put to the halt by Ebenezer Scrooge. After an evening of spiritual visits, Scrooge finds himself with a new point of view.

December 3,4, 5, 10, 11, 12, 2010.



Doubt, A Parable

  • Written by: John Patrick Shanley
  • Directed by Scott Painter

In the brilliant and powerful drama, Sister Aloysius, a Bronx school principal, takes matters into her own hands when she suspects the young Father Flynn of improprieties. Winner of the 2005 Pulitzer Prize and Tony Awards, DOUBT is a gripping story of suspicion cast on a priest's behavior that is less about scandal than about fascinatingly nuance questions of moral certainty.

Production tentatively scheduled for March 2011.



Calamity Jane

  • Adapted by Charles K. Freeman
  • Music by Sammy Fain, lyrics by Paul Francis Webster
  • Directed by Ken Barnett

In the wild-west outpost of Deadwood City, 1876, we find the sharp shooting tomboy, CALAMITY JANE surrounded by cowboys, townsfolk, and the famous Wild Bill Hickok. After a mix-up in the talent pool at Deadwood's saloon-theater, Calam goes to Chicago to import Deadwood the glamorous actress, Adelaid Adams, but returns by mistake with her maid, Katie Brown instead. Back in Deadwood, Katie's inability to perform is overcome as she wins the heart of the young Lieutenant Danny Gilmartin. When Calamity Jane sheds her tomboy persona at a ball at local Fort, she finally finds true love.

Production tentatively scheduled for May 2011.
