LET IT BE

(A celebration of the musical by The Beatles)

Set in the turbulent times of the 1960s and 1970s, Let it Be, is a concert that reminds of the times during the height of the Vietnam War, the struggle with the unrest of the country, the loss of so many, and the long journey home.

Told solely through the stirring music and compelling lyrics of their greatest hits, including Come Together, Blackbird, and more, this concert production with a live band on stage allows the focus to remain on the genius and impact of the music of The Beatles. Let it Be proves The Beatles are just as relevant today, as yesterday.

CABARET

In a Berlin nightclub, as the 1920's draw to a close, a garish Master of Ceremonies welcomes the audience and assures them they will forget all their troubles at the Cabaret. With the Emcee's bawdy songs as wry commentary, Cabaret explores the dark, heady, and tumultuous life of Berlin's natives and expatriates as Germany slowly yields to the emerging Third Reich. Cliff, a young American writer newly arrived in Berlin, is immediately taken with English cabaret singer Sally Bowles. Meanwhile, Fräulein Schneider, proprietor of a local boarding house, tentatively begins a romance with Herr Schultz, a mild-mannered fruit seller who happens to be Jewish. With memorable song and dance numbers such as "Willkommen," "Cabaret," "Don't Tell Mama", “Money Money”, “Mein Heir”, “Two Ladies”, and more, CABARET is dark, daring, provocative and exuberantly entertaining.

The Glass Menagerie

By Tennessee Williams

A drama of great tenderness, charm, and beauty, THE GLASS MENAGERIE is an icon of the American theatre.

Amanda Wingfield is a faded remnant of Southern gentility who now lives in a dingy St. Louis apartment with her son, Tom, and her daughter, Laura, who has a physical handicap and debilitating shyness. The father has left home; Tom supports his mother and sister with a shoe-factory job he finds unbearable. When Amanda convinces Tom to bring home from his workplace a “gentleman caller” for Laura, the illusions that Tom, Amanda, and Laura have each created in order to make life bearable collapse about them.

Anything Goes

A hilarious shipboard romp wrapped in one of Cole Porter's most magical scores. It's delightful, delicious and de-lovely!

Anything Goes premiered on Broadway on November 21, 1934 at the Alvin Theatre. A revised version of the show opened Off-Broadway at the Orpheum Theatre on May 15, 1962, starring Eileen Rodgers as Reno Sweeney and Hal Linden as Billy Crocker. In 1987, Lincoln Center Theater produced an updated version of the show. Opening at Broadway's Vivan Beaumont Theater on October 19, 1987, the show starred Patti LuPone, Howard McGillin and Bill McCutcheon, won the Tony Award for Best Revival, and played for 784 performances. In 2011, the Beaumont version was revived at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre on Broadway, starring Sutton Foster and Joel Grey. Once again, Anything Goes won the Tony for Best Musical Revival, and the production ran for 521 performances.

The Mousetrap

Brimming with intrigue, sophisticated humor and surprising twists, Agatha Christie's iconic murder mystery – about a group of strangers trapped during a snowstorm – is the world’s most successful and longest-running play.

After a local woman is murdered, the guests and staff at Monkswell Manor find themselves stranded during a snowstorm. It soon becomes clear that the killer is among them, and the seven strangers grow increasingly suspicious of one another. A police detective, arriving on skis, interrogates the suspects: the newlyweds running the house; a spinster with a curious background; an architect who seems better equipped to be a chef; a retired Army major; a strange little man who claims his car has overturned in a drift; and a jurist who makes life miserable for everyone. When a second murder takes place, tensions and fears escalate. This record-breaking murder mystery features a brilliant surprise finish from Dame Agatha Christie, the foremost mystery writer of her time.

Directed by Michael Baker
