Full of sharp parody, sinfully spectacular dancing, and irreverent humor, this spoof about a heavenly boy-band is adored by audiences and critics alike.

BOY MEETS GIRL...ON A BLIND DATE... IN A MUSICAL.
Imagine you're on a blind date and your mother shows up - followed by Grandma Ida, your opinionated best friend, your therapist and a bevy of broken-hearted exes. Throw in a soundtrack to rival the Top 40 and you've got one AMAZING evening, right? When blind date newbie Aaron is set up with serial-dater Casey, a casual drink turns into a hilarious high-stakes dinner. Though it's "blah" at first sight, through the help of their fellow restaurant patrons-turned loved ones, Aaron and Casey start to see a second date on the horizon. Can this couple turn what could be a dating disaster into something special before the check arrives?
THE 39 STEPS
Adapted by Patrick Barlow
From an original concept by Simon Corble and Nobby Dimon
HITCHCOCK MEETS HILARIOUS IN THIS TONY AWARD-WINNING HIT COMEDY!
This madcap comic thriller features a juicy spy story mixed with a dash of Monty Python mayhem. A young man bored with life falls in with a mysterious woman claiming to be a secret agent and soon he's the target of a cross-country manhunt with a shadowy organization called "The 39 Steps" on his trail. Four ridiculously talented actors take on over 150 roles in a plot packed with intrigue, international danger, an on-stage plane crash, old-fashioned romance, high-spirited comedy and a death-defying finale!
"ABSURDLY ENJOYABLE! This gleefully theatrical riff on Hitchcock's film is fast and frothy, performed by a cast of four that seems like a cast of thousands." -Ben Brantley, The New York Times
