Lend Me a Tenor

March 18 – April 10
(At the Black Bart Playhouse)

“…A comedy Triumph!” - Time Out New York
“The most howlingly funny laugh machine to hit Broadway in Years! …
One, two, three, four, five. Yes, that’s five doors on the set for Ken Ludwig’s “Lend Me a Tenor” . Five doors, primed for slamming, in a single hotel suite. All but incontrovertible physical evidence that farce is on the bill.” - The New York Times

Moliére’s “Scapin!” – 2011

admin — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 23:55:02 +0000

Directed by Misty Amber Day
August 12 -September 4, Fridays and Saturdays 8:00pm
with one Sunday performance, September 4 at 8:00pm

An energetic, nutty reversal-of-fortune farce! Strongly influenced by the Italian commedia dell’arte, Moliere’s Scapin tells the tale of two young men foiled in love when their respective fathers arrive determined to marry them off…but not to the women they’re in love with. The sons appeal to the servant Scapin for help, but with disastrous consequences. Scapin’s antics create more confusion, mistaken identity, rancor…and hilarity. Read our rave Review in the Copper Gazette here!

Sylvia By A.R. Gurney – March 30 to May 6

admin — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 17:07:02 +0000

A modern romantic comedy about a marriage and a dog by AR Gurney. Greg and Kate have moved toManhattan after twenty-two years of child-raising in the suburbs. Greg’s career as a financial trader is winding down, while Kate’s career as a public-school English teacher is beginning to offer her more opportunities. Greg brings home a dog he found in the park—or that has found him— bearing only the name “Sylvia” on her name tag. A street-smart mixture of Lab and Poodle, Sylvia becomes a major bone of contention between husband and wife. She offers Greg an escape from the frustrations of his job and the unknowns of middle age. To Kate, Sylvia becomes a rival for affection. And Sylvia thinks Kate just doesn’t understand the relationship between man and dog. The marriage is put in serious jeopardy, and a series of hilarious and touching complications leads us to the conclusion… Rated “PG”
