MOONLIGHT and MAGNOLIAS
06.02.11 -06.11.11
By: Ron Hutchinson
1939 Hollywood is abuzz! Legendary producer David O. Selznick has shut down production of Gone with the Wind. The screenplay just doesn't work. Selznick sends for screenwriter Ben Hecht and pulls director Victor Fleming from the set of The Wizard of Oz. Locking the doors, pulling the shades, and on a diet of bananas and peanuts, the three men labor for over five days, acting out the characters to the screenplay that will become the blueprint for one of the most successful and beloved films of all time.

Performance dates; June 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11 @ 8:00 pm & June 5 @ 2:00 pm.

JEWTOPIA
06.16 - 06.25.11
By: Bryan Fogel & Sam Wolfson
THE LONGEST-RUNNING COMEDY IN OFF-BROADWAY HISTORY! The New York Times calls it "UNSTOPPABLE." The Jewish Week New York calls it "Absolutely priceless!" We call it "The show you've all been waiting for!" Adam, a Jew, wants to marry a Jewish girl to please his family. Chris, a gentile, wants to marry a Jewish girl so "he'll never have to make another decision for the rest of his life." Adam and Chris form a secret pact. Chris will help Adam find the Jewish girl of his dreams and show him "Jewtopia," but only if Adam will help Chris shed his gentile-ness and take him undercover into the Jewish world. Stereotypes collide, cultures clash and chaos ensues in this unstoppable hit comedy!

Performance dates; June 16, 17, 18, 23, 24, 25 @ 8:00 pm & June 19 @ 2:00 pm

ANGLES in AMERICA: Part One: Millennium Approaches
08.18.10 - 08.28.10
By Tony Kushner
Winner of the 1993 Tony Award for Best Play and 1993 Pulitzer Prize for Drama! Set in America in the 1980s against a backdrop of greed, sexual politics, and the discovery of a new disease: AIDS, Kushner's Millennium Approaches carries a magnitude of strength that distinguishes it from other love stories, leaving you breathless and wanting more. TCAS brings their acclaimed production of this modern classic to the stage as we reprise the broadest and deepest American play of our time. Angels in America: Part One is presented in rotating repertory production with Part Two.

Performance dates; Aug. 18, 20, 25, 27 @ 8:00 pm & Aug. 20, 28 @ 2:00 pm

ANGLES in AMERICA: Part Two: Perestroika
08.19.10 - 08.28.10
By Tony Kushner
Winner of the 1994 Tony Award for Best Play and 1994 Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Play! The continuum of our rotating repertory production, Perestroika, begins at the final scene of Millennium Approaches, and guides us to an ultimately stirring conclusion. Perestroika is sure to dazzle those who missed Millennium Approaches, and send chills up the spines of those returning for their second dose of Kushner's epic masterwork in its entirety.

Performance dates; Aug. 19, 26, 28 @ 8:00 pm & Aug. 21 @ 2:00 pm
