2011-2012 SEASON OF PLAYS

OUR NEXT TWO PRODUCTIONS--

 

February 15- 25, 2012
STAGE DOOR
By Edna Ferber and George S. Kaufman
This 1937 screwball comedy centers around a group of young actresses crammed into a theatrical boarding house in New York while waiting for their big break on The Great White Way. Stage Door showcases love affairs, despair, betrayals, wise-cracks, rejections, tragedy and plenty of delicious comedy. The central plot focuses on Terry Randall (Katherine Hepburn in the 1937 film), a stage-struck actress totally driven by her talent and ambition. What the other young women bring to the play is a veritable carnival of memorable characters.  Stage Door is a genuine valentine to the legitimate stage as well as a comic send-up of the Hollywood film industry.

A FUNNY THING HAPPENED
ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM
Book by Burt Shevelove and
Larry Gelbart;
Music and Lyrics by
Stephen Sondheim
"Tragedy tomorrow, comedy tonight!" begins one of Broadway's greatest farces. Forum is light, fast-paced, witty, irreverent and one of the funniest musicals ever written! It takes comedy back to its roots, combining situations from Roman farces with the slapstick energy of classic vaudeville. The result is a non-stop laugh-fest in which a crafty slave, seeking to earn his freedom, struggles to win the hand of a beautiful courtesan for his young master. What a great way to close out our exciting season!
