dark play, or stories for boys

by Carlos Murillo

Love is a dangerous game, especially when it is played online.

Behind the veil of the internet, people can be anyone they say they are, adjusting their profiles to suit their needs and desires — and the desires of others. One lie begets another for Nick: what starts out as an adolescent yearning brings him to the brink of death in this 21st century cautionary tale.

dark play contains adult language and situations.

October 7 – 9 and 20 – 22
Thursday through Saturday Evenings at 7:30 pm
Sunday Matinee at 2 pm

 

 

The Servant of Two Masters

by Carlo Goldoni

One servant + two masters = Two times the fun!

Goldoni drew on commedia dell’arte characters to populate his tale of the inept, but always earnest — and always hungry — servant, Truffaldino. During the course of one day in Venice, the butler manages to turn several lives upside down, and then right side up. Complicating things are one woman engaged to two men (one of whom may not be who he purports to be), one lovelorn maidservant, a generous amount of swordplay, and a tantalizingly delicious feast.

December 2 – 4 and 8 – 10
Thursday through Saturday Evenings at 7:30 pm
Sunday Matinee at 2 pm

 

Coyote on a Fence

by Bruce Graham

“…the only person who ever loved him taught him how to hate.”

Shedding light on a dark corner of a state penitentiary, playwright Graham ponders the death penalty, and whether it is appropriate in all cases. Arsonist Bobby Rayburn freely admits to committing a heinous crime but, according to the would-be psychologist in the next cell, might be able to plead insanity if he wanted.

Coyote on a Fence contains adult language.

February 24 – 26 and March 1 – 3
Thursday through Saturday Evenings at 7:30 pm
Sunday Matinee at 2 pm

 

 

The Rocky Horror Show

Book, music and lyrics by Richard O’Brien

Do You remember doing the Time Warp?

Join Brad and Janet, as they stumble upon the castle of that notorious transsexual Transylvanian, Dr. Frank-N-Furter, and the rest of his kooky, spooky crew. An audience favorite for over 35 years, this rock musical is an affectionate satire of some of the more far-fetched science-fiction flicks of the 1950s. Oh, and feel free to slip on the fishnets and pearls!

April 27 – 29 and May 3 – 5
Thursday through Saturday Evenings at 7:30 pm
Sunday Matinee at 2 pm
