April
19 – 29 – Little Women
adapted by Kristin Laurence based on the book by Louisa May Alcott.
The
play begins that memorable Christmas when Marmee leaves to visit
her sick husband and Jo sells her beautiful hair to help finance
the trip. It ends just a year later when the happy family is again
preparing to celebrate not only Christmas but also the return
of Mr. March. In between these two events, we again live, laugh,
love and cry with Meg, Jo, Amy and Beth as they go through the
many trials and tribulations that have made this story a classic.

July
19 – Aug. 12 – Summer Repertory:
The
Beaux’ Stratagem – Adapted by Thornton Wilder
and Ken Ludwig
from the play by George Farquhar.
The
play tells the story of two young bucks who, having spent all
their money by living too well, leave London and roam from town
to town in search of love and fortune. In order to find a wealthy
heiress for at least one of them, they pose as master and servant
– exchanging roles from one town to the next. In Lichfield, Aimwell
is the master and Archer the servant, and there they meet the
lovely, wealthy Dorinda and her equally desirable sister-in-law,
Mrs. Kate Sullen. They set their caps for these women, but problems
abound. Kate is married to a drunken sot who despises her; the
innkeeper’s saucy daughter, Cherry, has set her cap for Archer;
Dorinda’s mother, Lady Bountiful, mistakenly believes herself
to be a great healer of the sick, and she guards her daughter
like a dragoness; and a band of brigands plans to rob the house
of Lady Bountiful that very night, putting all schemes in jeopardy.
This is a play in the great tradition of Goldsmith’s She
Stoops to Conquer and
Sheridan’s The Rivals and The
School for Scandal . It is classic, formal, robust
and hilarious.
PLAY
(to be determined) will be in repertory with The Beaux' Statagem
Aug.
23 – Sept. 2 – The Kitchen Witches
by Caroline Smith. The cast is 2 women and
2 men
Isobel
Lomax and Dolly Biddle are two "mature" cable-access
cooking show hostesses who have hated each other for 30 years,
ever since Larry Biddle dated one and married the other. When
circumstances put them together on a TV show called The Kitchen
Witches, the insults are flung harder than the food! Dolly's long-suffering
TV-producer son Stephen tries to keep them on track, but as long
as Dolly's dressing room is one inch closer to the set than Isobel's,
it's a losing battle, and the show becomes a rating smash as Dolly
and Isobel top both Martha Stewart and Jerry Springer!

Nov.
3,4,10&11 – Doo-Wop Wed Widing Hood by
Charlie Lovett and music and lyrics by Bill Francoeur.
It
’ s the 1950s, hula-hoops are in high
demand, and so is Little Red Riding Hood! Wise Prince Jason
(winner of the Math Olympics and the Nobel Prize), Strong Prince
Justin (who can bench press his own mother) and ordinary Loud
Prince Frank all want to woo Red Riding Hood. So the king
and queen hire the Fairy Godmother to set three tasks for the
princes. Only the prince who can find the missing girl,
defeat the dragon and awaken a castle visitor from her slumber
earns the right to woo Wed Widing Hood... that is, Red Riding
Hood! Alas, Little Red ’ s couch-potato
parents don ’ t want to lose their little
girl. How else will they get their cookies delivered to
Grandmother? So they hire the evil queen to thwart the Fairy
Godmother ’ s contest. Luckily,
Little Red Riding Hood's two sisters — Big Green Riding Hood and
Medium Purple Riding Hood — help balance out the situation.
Complete with the big bad wolf and a sock-hopping ‘
50s score, this adventure is guaranteed to end in happily-ever-after
laughter for audiences and performers of all ages!
