Don’t Dress for Dinner

by Marc Camoletti Adapted by Robin Hawdon

Show Logo

It’s a feast of a farce, played out in a French country house. On the menu are a married couple whose paramours both show up at the same time, a cook masquerading as a mistress and a mistress masquerading as a cook. Add one other husband for an order of fun flambé! Laughter is the special of the day!

Book by Burt Shevelove and Larry Gelbart
Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim

It will be “Comedy Tonight” when this musical romp takes the stage. Inspired by the plays of Plautus, the ancient Roman setting is fused with the high energy of classic vaudeville, the low comedy of burlesque, the witty words of Larry Gelbart (M*A*S*H) and the songs of Stephen Sondheim (West Side Story, A Little Night Music, Into the Woods).

December 4 – 6 and 10 – 12
Thursday through Saturday Evenings at 7:30 pm

Sunday Matinee at 2 pm
$12/$10 Seniors, Faculty and Staff/$8 Students

Arms and the Man

By George Bernard Shaw

Heroism, cowardice and class conflict are dipped in luscious chocolate in one of Shaw’s most beloved comedies, where love, war and marriage intersect. Is the soldier that shoots bon-bons instead of cartridges any less brave than the soldier who goes into battle with no ammunition at all?

Thursday through Saturday Evenings at 7:30 pm
Sunday Matinees at 2 pm

(February 28 matinee will be sign–language interpreted )

The Story


By Tracey Scott Wilson


Journalistic integrity gets a workout in this gripping, fast–paced drama. When the murder of a Caucasian teacher occurs in an African–American neighborhood, one reporter locks horns with her editor as they battle over how to cover the story. But just what is the story? The play was inspired by the Washington Post reporter who received a Pulitzer Prize for her story on an inner–city youth, but forced to return the prize when the story was proven to be fabricated. The Story contains adult language.

(April 25 matinee will be sign-language interpreted)
$12/$10 Seniors, Faculty and Staff/$8 Students
