2018-2019 Season

James and the giant peach
​​summer 2018

Directed by: susan burley

When James is sent by his conniving aunts to chop down their old fruit tree, he discovers a magic potion that results in a tremendous peach... and launches a journey of enormous proportions. Suddenly, James finds himself in the center of the gigantic peach, among human-sized insects with equally oversized personalities, but after it falls from the tree and rolls into the ocean, the group faces hunger, sharks and plenty of disagreements. Thanks to James' quick wit and creative thinking, the residents learn to live and work together as a family. The dangerous voyage is a success, but the adventure takes a whole new twist once they land on the Empire State Building.
A delightfully offbeat adaptation of the classic Roald Dahl adventure, the creative possibilities with James and the Giant Peach are endless. Actors will love playing the outlandish characters and performing brand new material from one of Broadway's hottest duos.

Boeing, Boeing
October 2018

Directed by: Ali Malingen & Henry Ralston

Winner! 2008 Tony Award®, Best Revival of a Play

This 1960’s French farce adapted for the English-speaking stage features self-styled Parisian lothario Bernard, who has Italian, German, and American fiancées, each a beautiful airline hostess with frequent “layovers.” He keeps “one up, one down, and one pending” until unexpected schedule changes bring all three to Paris, and Bernard’s apartment, at the same time.

How the west was worn:
​a melodrama
​December 2018

Directed by: david burley

Things aren’t as black and white as you’d think in this hysterical spoof of melodrama caricatures.  With two villains working together and one of them putting on airs as a do-good sheriff, everything’s turned inside out and kind of crazy!  Double the bad guys means double the trouble, and our fashion designer heroine, Terry Robe, may lose her shop unless someone comes to her rescue.  Plus, with all the dastardly deeds happening, the town council may lose their chance at impressing the railroad tycoon who wants to bring the tracks through Black Flatts.  But who exactly is the real hero in town?  Who will set it all aright?  With all these black hats, white hats, and plenty of colors in between, have fun figuring out just who is the bad guy, who’s a good guy, and who is a great, great man.  After all, if clothes make the man, then there is some serious trouble in Black Flatts.
