This is a subtitle for your new post

Book by Michael Stewart

Music and Lyrics by Jerry Herman

Based on the play The Matchmaker by Thornton Wilder

Director - Lynne Colatrella
Music Director - Benjamin Doyle
Choreographer - TBA

This blockbuster Broadway hit bursts with humor, romance, high-energy

dancing and some of the greatest songs in musical theatre history. Join

socialite-turned-matchmaker Dolly Levi as she travels to Yonkers, New York, to find a wife for the curmudgeonly “half-a-millionaire” Horace Vandergelder. Dolly’s romantic scheming soon entangles Horace’s two clerks and a lovestruck young artist. As she busies herself finding mates for the suitors, Dolly realizes it’s her turn to find her own perfect match. One of the most entertaining musical comedies of all time, Hello, Dolly! is a beguiling romp in the universal search for love, with hits like “Put On Your Sunday Clothes,” “Before the Parade Passes By,” and, of course, the show-stopping “Hello, Dolly!”

A HERCULE POIROT MYSTERY

Written by Darko Tresnjak
Based on the Agatha Christie novel

Director Joel Fenster

Something’s afoul on the private golf course at Merlinville-Sur-Mer, namely the body of Hercule Poirot’s newest client, in this new Agatha Christie adaptation. When a desperate plea brings Poirot and his ever-loyal

companion Captain Hastings to this quiet French village, they arrive just a stroke too late. As the investigation begins, the duo must navigate a rough course of rival detectives, secret affairs, and shifting identities. In a case where no one plays it straight, Poirot’s “little grey cells” are in for his greatest challenge yet.

RUN FOR YOUR WIFE

This is a subtitle for your new post

Written by Ray Cooney
Director - John Atkin

A madcap modern British farce* about John Smith, a cab driver with two wives and two homes and a very precisely planned schedule for juggling them. Trouble brews when John is injured and briefly hospitalized, and both wives report him missing to two different police departments. With the help of his lazy upstairs neighbor Stanley, John tries to keep his double life from exploding by hastily improvising a tangled web of lies to explain himself to his two wives and two suspicious detectives. *Please Note: Run For Your Wife is a “bedroom farce.” It contains sexual innuendo (for comedic effect) and adult language and is intended for mature audiences.

A CHRISTMAS CAROL

Tue, 09 Jun 2026 17:10:53 GMT

This is a subtitle for your new post

Written by Patrick Barlow
Inspired by the Christmas Story by Charles Dickens

Director - Gordon Casagrande

It wouldn’t be Christmas without A Christmas Carol . We take the Dickens’ classic story of greed, grief, ghoulish ghosts and eleventh-hour redemption and make it feel brand new again. In this raucous version, the entire show is performed by five actors, most of whom play multiple roles. It’s a unique
production filled with music, puppetry, pantomime, and farce. Every time the actors switch characters, we’re reminded that we’re watching the magic of live theatrical storytelling unfolding in front of our eyes.

A sidesplitting sendup of greed, love, revolution (and musicals!), in a time when water is worth its weight in gold. In a Gotham-like city, a terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought, has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity’s most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides that he’s had enough and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom! Winner of three Tony Awards, three Outer Critics Circle Awards, two Lucille Lortel Awards and two Obie Awards, Urinetown is a hilarious musical satire of the legal system, capitalism, social irresponsibility, populism, environmental collapse, privatization of natural resources, bureaucracy, municipal politics, and musical theatre itself!

DIRECTOR – John Atkin

In a community entrenched in honor and iron wills, secrets have a way of exploding. It’s an uneasy venue for a patchwork family. For a wobbly marriage. For a world-weary longshoreman who feels his strength slipping, inch by treacherous inch. A man’s man who discovers, too late, that the most dangerous enemy is the one that comes from within – or from the girl who once played at his feet. This is a true thriller with life and death stakes, disguised as an American Classic. Experience Arthur Miller’s masterpiece from the edge of your seat.

Hailed as the perfect musical comedy, this award-winning classic gambles with luck and love under the bright lights of Broadway. Set in Damon Runyon’s mythical New York City, Guys and Dolls is an oddball romantic comedy. Gambler, Nathan Detroit, tries to find the cash to set up the biggest craps game in town while the authorities breathe down his neck; meanwhile, his girlfriend and nightclub performer, Adelaide, laments that they’ve been engaged for fourteen years. Nathan turns to fellow gambler, Sky Masterson, for the dough, and Sky ends up chasing the straight-laced missionary, Sarah Brown, as a result. Guys and Dolls takes us from the heart of Times Square to the cafes of Havana, Cuba, and even into the sewers of New York City, but eventually everyone ends up right where they belong.
