PETER AND THE STARCATCHER

9/6/17 - 10/8/17

Directed by Chris Kelly

Music Direction by Philip Farugia

Tony-winning PETER AND THE STARCATCHER upends the century-old story of how a miserable orphan comes to be The Boy Who Would Not Grow Up (a.k.a. Peter Pan). Featuring a dozen actors portraying more than 100 unforgettable characters, PETER AND THE STARCATCHER uses ingenious stagecraft and the limitless possibilities of imagination to bring the story to life.

VIOLET

11/1/17 - 12/3/17

Directed by Susan Drozd

Choreographed by Kristy E. Schupp
Music Direction by Theresa Quinn

With a score from Tony award winning composer, Jeanine Tesori, VIOLET features a moving story with show-stopping music. Winner of the Drama Critics' Circle Award and Lucille Lortel Award for Best Musical when it premiered off-Broadway in 1997, and then on to a Tony nominated Broadway debut in 2014, VIOLET is about a scarred woman who embarks on a cross-country journey of discovery, and realizes the true meaning of beauty along the way.

SMOKEY JOE'S CAFÉ: THE SONGS OF LIEBER & STOLLER

2/7/18 - 3/11/18

Directed and Choreographed by John Fredo

Music Direction by Theresa Quinn

Leiber and Stoller, as much as anyone, virtually invented rock 'n' roll. Now their songs provide the basis for an electrifying entertainment that illuminates a golden age of American culture. Featuring nearly 40 of the greatest songs ever recorded, including such favorites as "Hound Dog," "Kansas City," "Love Potion #9," "Jailhouse Rock," "Stand By Me" and many more, SMOKEY JOE'S CAFE is an exhilarating night at the theatre.

ONCE
4/25/18 - 5/27/18

Directed by Randall Kramer

Choreographed by Michael Walline

Music Direction by Theresa Quinn

From the very first note, ONCE draws you in and never lets go. This emotionally captivating musical is the only show to have music that won the Academy Award, Grammy Award, Olivier Award and Tony Award. On the streets of Dublin, an Irish musician and Czech immigrant are drawn together by their shared love of music. Over the course of one fateful week, an unexpected friendship and collaboration quickly evolves into a powerful but complicated love story, underscored by emotionally charged music. ONCE promises to be an unforgettable theatrical experience.

MURDER FOR TWO

7/11/18 - 8/12/18

Directed and Choreographed by Doug Weyand

Music Direction by Theresa Quinn

An irreverent theatrical riff on the classic whodunnit, everyone is a suspect in MURDER FOR TWO, a hilarious new murder mystery musical with a twist: one actor investigates the crime, the other plays all of the suspects, and they BOTH play the PIANO!

A zany blend of classic musical comedy and madcap mystery, MURDER FOR TWO is a highly theatrical duet loaded with killer laughs.
