The season includes:
CURTAINS
Written by Rupert Holmes
Lyrics by Frank Ebb
Music by John Kander
Sep. 25-27 & Oct. 2-4
Directed by Wayne Dunn
Set in Boston, Massachusetts in 1959, CURTIANS follows the fallout when the supremely untalented star of Robbin’ Hood of the Old West is murdered during her opening night curtain call. It is up to Lt. Frank Cioffi, a police detective who moonlights as a musical theatre fan, to save the show, solve the case, and maybe even find love before the show reopens. All without getting killed himself. With music by John Kander and lyrics by Frank Ebb, this Tony-winning Broadway classic is not to be missed.
THE WILLOW AND I
By John Patrick
Mar. 11-13 and 18-20
Directed by Karen Oehler
THE WILLOW AND I tells the story of two sisters in 1900, that are in love with the same tall, young man. One of the sisters is frail and gentle. The other robust and assertive. It is the gentle girl that the young man loves but never marries because the other sister threatens to kill herself just before the wedding. The bride’s mind recoils, and for forty years the girl lives in her clock-stopped mind on her summer wedding day. And then, she awakens. Her lover married her sister; they had a son who is very like the father. You may guess whose face she first sees and what it does to her.
MURDERED TO DEATH
by Peter Gordon
May 13-15 & 20-22
Director by Jessica Tucker
MURDERED TO DEATH introduces the inept and bungling Inspector Pratt, who battles against the odds and his own incompetence to solve the murder of the house’s owner. It soon becomes clear that the murderer isn’t finished yet. Will the miscreant be unmasked before everyone else has met their doom or will the audience die laughing first? The first in a trilogy of Agatha Christie spoofs, this hilariously clever whodunit is sure to be a wicked delight.
