The Curious Savage
The Curious Savage
a comedy by John Patrick
Directed by Denise Barkow
Performances: November 3, 4, 10, 11, 12, 16, 17, 18 & 19, 2023
Mrs. Savage has been left ten million dollars by her husband and wants to make the best use of it, in spite of her grown-up stepchildren’s efforts to get their hands on it. Knowing that the widow’s wealth is now in negotiable securities, and seeing they cannot get hold of the fortune, the stepchildren commit her to a sanatorium hoping to “bring her to her senses.” In the sanatorium, Mrs. Savage meets various social misfits, men and women who just cannot adjust themselves to life, people who need the help Mrs. Savage can provide. In getting to know them, she realizes that she will find happiness with them and plans to spend the rest of her life as one of them.

Sleeping Indoors
a play by Jim Holt
Directed by Amy Briseno
When literary reviewer Paul and his wife Nora invite a homeless man, Dwain, into their home for Christmas dinner, they don’t expect to be so charmed by him—or that his journal will be the incredible literary masterpiece that it is. But can Dwain, whose art thrives in anonymity, be convinced to give up the only life he’s known for such comforts as sleeping indoors? Sleeping Indoors challenges perceptions and stereotypes about the homeless and raises intriguing questions about what really constitutes a '’good life’.
Performances: March 8-24, 2024
Bad Auditions by Bad Actors
a comedy by Ian McWethy
Directed by Tony Thomas
A casting director has one day to find the leads for a community theater production of Romeo and Juliet. But what seems like a simple task proves impossible when the pool of actors includes extremely bad method actors.
Performances: June 7-23, 2024

Godspell (2012 Revision)
Written by John Michael Tebelak
Music & Lyrics by Stephen Schwartz
Directed by Michael Glorioso
Music Direction by Katelyn Leonard-White
Godspell 2012 is delightfully based on the Gospel according to Matthew. It is a masterful retelling of the original sensation, injected with contemporary references and dazzling new arrangements. A small group of people help Jesus Christ tell different parables by using a wide variety of games, storytelling techniques and a hefty dose of comic timing. An eclectic blend of songs, ranging in style from pop to vaudeville, is employed as the story of Jesus' life dances across the stage. Dissolving hauntingly into the Last Supper and the Crucifixion, Jesus' messages of kindness, tolerance and love come vibrantly to life. Godspell is a sensation that continues to touch audiences.
Performances: November 1-17, 2024
