The Tempest  [more...]
06/22/2012 – 07/28/2012

by William Shakespeare

Shakespeare's final play, The Tempest is a striking fantasy/ romance rich with magic and humor. The play opens on a ship in the middle of a storm.
Fearing the ship will split in two, the sailors and nobles aboard abandon ship and make for a nearby island. When the storm subsides, the exiled Duke Prospero and his daughter Miranda appear on the island they have inhabited for 12 years. Using his rescued sprite, Ariel, and an enslaved spirit, Calaban, Prospero leads the shipwrecked nobles thorough a series of mishaps in an atttempt at revenge.

Rated "G"

 

The Imaginary Invalid  [more...]
08/31/2012 – 09/30/2012

by Molière

In Molière's outrageous satire of medicine and its practitioners, the wealthy Argan, to put it mildly, enjoys poor health. Laxatives, suppositories, bloodlettings, and second and third opinions from the leading quacks are the order of his day-and hell on his wily, back-talking servant Toinette. His daughter Angélique is in love with the impoverished Cléante, but Argan wants to marry her to Thomas Diafoirus, a medical dunce who can assure his father-in-law a lifetime of health care. Cléante disguises himself as a music teacher to gain access to his love, but Béline, Argan's mercenary second wife, threatens to expose them. A disguised Toinette, sage advice from his brother Béralde, and a faked death scene finally teach Argan where to place his trust. Rated "PG"

 

Almost, Maine  [more...]
11/16/2012 – 12/23/2012

By John Carnieri

On a cold, clear, moonless night in the middle of winter, all is not quite what it seems in the emote, mythical town of Almost, Maine. As the northern lights hover in the star-filled sky above, Almost's residents find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected and
often hilarious ways. Knees are bruised. Hearts are broken. But the bruises heal, and the hearts mend-almost-in this delightful midwinter night's dream. Rated "PG"
