In the winter, the 11th annual Vagina Monologues will play upstairs in the theatre's theotherspace, while the world premiere of Heidiwill take the mainstage. Patsy will be back in February with a revival of the wildly successful Always...Patsy Cline. The Roxy's annual Shakespeare offering will be Romeo & Juliet, with a stage adaptation of Ambrose Bierce's Civil War Stories and the regional premiere of Stephen Adly Guirgis's Motherf**cker with the Hat playing in March.
You, too, will be flying in April with the new musical Peter Pan, based on the J.M. Barrie play and written by George Stiles, Anthony Drewe (the men who brought us Honk!) and Willis Hall. The Marvelous Wonderettes will croon during the summer, and a Rodgers and Hammerstein musical (which cannot be announced until May) will close the season.
