OVERTHRONE: An Original Rock Revue
Directed & conceived by MCLEAN STRICKLAND-PARR
Produced by BRETT PARR
This original rock revue will take audiences through a story in a medieval setting that they think they may already know. A Princess has come of age and the kingdom has gathered to celebrate the bright occasion. Like everything in life, unexpected twists can come at any time, and we quickly find ourselves in the heat of a battle for power over the kingdom and more importantly the happenings within the Royal family’s own dwelling. Epic rock songs propel this story through highs and lows, bringing emotion and new meaning to classic music and lyrics from the past and present in this nonstop, high-energy production. Bring on the Reign!
This production staff is committed to bringing together a diverse group of people who are dedicated to bringing this story to life. We encourage performers of all races, ethnicities, gender identities, sexualities, abilities, and body types, to submit an audition. We hope to unite a group of people looking to enhance the arts in our community. No roles have been precast.

ON WITH THE SHOW
Our 61st Mainstage Season leaps off the screen & page and onto the stage in Roald Dahl’s MATILDA the Musical. Featuring a large cast of children and adults, ‘Matilda the Musical’ is a triumphant and bold new musical that follows Matilda Wormwood, a girl with the gift of telekinesis, who loves reading more than anything, as she follows her heart on a journey we will never forget.
Children of Eden is a show largely about parenthood. About what we bring to and leave to the next generation. About all of the hopes and dreams we try to gift them, and what happens when they don’t react to those legacies in the way we expect. About anger, and disappointment, and loss. But it is also about hope. About connection. About forgiveness. And that so often the hardest part of love is letting go.
