Orphaned in India, 11-year-old Mary Lennox returns to Yorkshire to live with her reclusive uncle Archibald, whose invalid son Colin has had to bear the guilt of his mother Lily's death. When Mary discovers her Aunt Lily's hidden garden, locked shut and overgrown with vines, Mary is determined to revive the beauty that once was.

Now And Then

April 15-24, 2022

Krevsky Center

One night in 1981, just as Jamie is closing the bar where he works, an anxious, last-minute customer offers him and his girlfriend Abby two thousand dollars to stay and have a drink with him. As the trio exchanges stories and Jamie considers the decisions he faces about his musical career, as well as he and Abby's future, the young couple begins to realize that this older man is unusually invested in their choices... and the reason he gives them is completely unbelievable.

Now and Then is a heartfelt romantic comedy about the costs of the choices we make, and the people who make them with us.

Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike

June 10-19, 2022

Krevsky Center

Nominated for six Tony® awards, and winner of the 2013 Tony® for Best Play, Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike is one of the most lauded and beloved Broadway plays of recent years. Equal parts send-up and homage to the works of Anton Chekhov, the play centers around middle-aged siblings Vanya and Sonia, who share their childhood home in Bucks County, PA, where they bicker and complain about the circumstances of their lives.

Suddenly, their imperious movie-star sister, Masha, swoops in with her new boy toy, Spike. Old resentments flare up, eventually leading to the introduction of new conflicts - and the resolution of old ones.
