 Into the Woods
by James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim 

Replete with glass slippers, enchanted beans, giants in the sky, and wolves in granny's clothes, our most famous childhood stories come cleverly together in Stephen Sondheim's celebrated musical comedy.  But life after the "happily ever after" takes on new meaning in these fractured fairy tales when we discover what it takes to confront the most challenging giants of all--those within ourselves.

November 29, 30 and December 1
 
A Dickens Christmas:
The Cricket on the Hearth
by Charles Dickens

Dickens is brought back to life in this rich, original reader's theatre adaptation of one of his somewhat less familiar Christmas carols, The Cricket on the Hearth.  If you're ready for a change from the traditional Scrooge, join us for this poignant tale of a family who learns for themselves how life-changing "the sauce of human kindness" can actually be.

February 21, 22, 23, 28 ,29 and March 1
The Winter's Tale
by William Shakespeare
Shakespeare's tragicomic masterpiece, performed in-the-round, lands in modern-day Sicily.   From the sandy beaches of the Mediterranean to the wilds of Bohemia, love is lost and perilously found again in this unusual, romantic adventure--one of the Bard's most captivating, madcap stories. 


April 17, 18, and 19
 
Oklahoma!
by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II
This famous duo's first collaboration remains, in many ways, their most innovative, having set the standards of musical theatre still being followed today.  Set in Western territory at the raw start of the 20th century, the high-spirited rivalry between the local farmers and cowboys provides the colorful backdrop against which Curly and Laurey fall in love, singing some of the most memorable songs in theatre.
