The Understudy

Lights, Camera, Mayhem! It’s complete chaos behind the curtain! From the acclaimed creator of Smash comes a bitingly witty comedic satire about Broadway dreams and backstage nightmares. When Harry, a hapless understudy, Roxanne, a frazzled stage manager, and Jake, an up-and-coming Hollywood hunk collide in rehearsal for a newly discovered Kafka masterpiece, things begin to spiral spectacularly out of control. As tempers flare, tensions rise and the stoned stage crew goes rogue, a routine run-through turns into a full-blown disaster. Will the show still go on? Get ready for misplaced props, oversized egos and lots of laughs in this show perfect for theatre lovers and haters alike. Performances: Saturday, July 19: 7:30pm Sunday, July 20: 2:00pm Friday, July 25: 7:30pm Saturday, July 26: 7:30pm Sunday, July 27: 2:00pm Thursday, July 31: 7:30pm Friday, August 1: 7:30pm Saturday, August 2: 7:30pm All audience members receive 20% off their total food bill at Club Cafe before or after the show Appropriate for ages 12+ Donations of new and gently loved children's books will be collected at each show for local charities.

Tartuffe

Hypocrisy Has Never Been This Hilarious! Poor gullible Orgon refuses to see what's hiding in plain sight! He's been duped by Tartuffe, a charismatic con man, who fully intends to make off with his family, his fortune and maybe even his kitchen sink! Thank goodness the women of the household are not so easily fooled. Together they vow to reveal his ruse and beat Tartuffe at his own game. But will their daring deception be enough to defeat the sanctimonious scoundrel before the final curtain? Packed with witty wordplay, laughable lies, and the pretense of piety, this side-splitting satire will keep audiences on their toes and on the edge of their seats. Performances: Saturday, Nov. 9 at 7:30pm Sunday, Nov. 10 at 2pm Friday, Nov. 15 at 7:30pm Saturday, Nov. 16 at 7:30pm Sunday, Nov. 17 at 2pm Thursday, Nov. 21 at 7:30pm Friday, Nov. 22 at 7:30pm Saturday, Nov. 23 at 7:30pm Sunday, Nov 24 at 2pm Donations of new and gently loved children's books will be collected at each show for local charities.

Burn This

If it doesn’t set your soul on fire, it isn’t worth the burn! She's lost her muse and he’s lost his way! Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Lanford Wilson ignites the stage with this caustically funny exploration of life, loss, mourning and moving on. In this Tony-nominated masterpiece, Anna, a gifted dancer, is grappling with the artistic and personal void left by the untimely death of her roommate and creative partner Robbie. Enter Pale, Robbie's fiery older brother, whose unexpected intrusion ignites an unanticipated explosive dance of love, laughter, and longing between two seemingly incompatible strangers. All tickets are Pay-What-You-Can! The means we don't decide the price, you do! Our "sweet spot" would be about $20 per person; if you are on a budget, pay less, and if you are able to pay more, please do!
