See what's coming up in our 94th season in 2011/2012!

September 22~25 and 29~30 & October 1~2

This charming musical recently left Broadway and is hot stuff all over the country. Take six precocious kids (played by young adults), put them into the finals of a big-deal spelling bee run by slightly off-center adults, invite four audience members to join in the spelling, add songs and laughs one after the other, and you have a musical comedy spelled A-W-E-S-O-M-E. Whether it’s the boy who can only spell if he writes the word out with his foot or the girl who is happy to brag “I speak six languages,” you’ll pick your personal winner; but the real winner will be spelled Y-O-U.  Not really for children under 12. Winner of Two Tony Awards, 2005

A brand new play from a Michigan playwright, A Little Murder is a lot of fun for everyone. Winner Best New Play Contest Community Theatre Association of Michigan.

Winter Romance:  “Almost, Maine”, by John Cariani

A sense of magic embraces this midwinter night’s dream as it breathes smiles and romance into the brisk night air. Have a hot chocolate with your sweetie after you see this one.

Winter Drama:  “All My Sons”, by Arthur Miller

March 2~4 & 8~11

Arthur Miller’s great American drama set after WWII still touches the very soul of Americans at war. When is it OK for people to profit from their country at war? How long do you wait for those who are missing in action? How does an American family faced with these questions find the right answers? So, good it has been made into two movies and had a big Broadway revival, 2008. All My Sons shows full force why Miller is one of America’s finest playwrights. You’ll be fascinated. Tony Award Winner for Best Play, 1947.

Spring Musical:  “The Drowsy Chaperone”, Music & Lyrics by: Lisa Lambert and Greg Morrison and Book by: Bob Martin and Don McKellar

May 3~6 & 10~13

“The Man in the Chair” is a bit sad tonight; and, in order to lift his spirits, he puts on a recording of his favorite musical: The Drowsy Chaperone. Lo and behold, the charming musical comes to life before his eyes: chorus girls come dancing out of his refrigerator, scoundrels make plans to seduce the bride on this, her wedding day; the groom goes roller skating, blindfolded, in the park and falls in love with a French girl; gangsters disguise themselves as pastry chefs; and her fourth martini makes the drowsy chaperone even more drowsy—and all of this in song and dance. This brand new Broadway musical is a tribute to musicals of the Jazz Age. Winner of Two Tony Awards: Best Book and Best Score, 2006
