THE BOOK OF MORMON tells the story of two young Mormon missionaries sent to a remote village in northern Uganda, where a brutal warlord is threatening the local population. Naïve and optimistic, the two missionaries try to share the Book of Mormon, one of their scriptures—which only one of them has read—but have trouble connecting with the locals, who are more worried about war, famine, poverty, and AIDS than about religion. Contains explicit language.

The Company of COMPANY.

COMPANY
The Carnegie
Aug. 15-30
Covington

Directed by Corrie Danieley
Music Direction by Erin McCamley
Choreography by Jennifer Martin

Cast: Zachary Huffman as Robert, Kathryn Miller as Kathy, Megan Ainsley Callahan as April, Aiden Sims as Marta, Mary Kate Vanegas as Jenny, Jeremy Long as David, Sara Kenny as Amy, Wes Carman as Paul, Stephanie Louise Park as Joanne, John Langley as Larry, Marta Backman Hyland as Sarah, Kathryn Zajac as Carry, Clarisse Minter as Susan & Will Reed as Peter

Robert is single, but all of his friends are married. He envies their love and companionship, but can’t seem to part with his bachelor ways. On his 35th birthday, they surprise him with a cake and a birthday wish that will leave him pondering the life he’s chosen. Full of lively, idiosyncratic characters, in addition to some of Sondheim’s best known songs, COMPANY is a rollicking and reflective send up of the modern relationship. Both poignant and funny, anyone who’s been in love can find a little of themselves in this contemporary Broadway classic.

Directed by Kim Warrick

THE MUSIC MAN follows fast-talking traveling salesman Harold Hill as he cons the people of River City, Iowa into buying instruments and uniforms for a boys’ band he vows to organize – this despite the fact he doesn’t know a trombone from a treble clef.
