While hip Danny Zuko and wholesome Sandy Dumbrowski resolve the problems of their mutual attraction in this 1950’s rock musical, the gang sings and dances its way through such nostalgic scenes as the pajama party, the prom, the burger palace and the drive in movie.
This is the night that the whole family can enjoy, bring the grandparents and the grand-children for a special pre Christmas treat.

"Lend Me a Tenor"

by Ken Ludwig

Presented by special permission of Samuel French, Inc

directed by John Lomas

  • February 15-18: 8.00p.pm
  • February 19th :2 pm, Matinee
  • February 22-26: 8:00 pm

Winner of 3 Tony Awards, ‘Lend Me a Tenor’ is set in September 1934.
Saunders, the general manager of the Cleveland Grand Opera Company, is primed to wel-come world famous Tito Morelli, Il Stupendo, the greatest tenor of his generation. He is to appear for one night only as Otello but arrives late and, through a hilarious series of mishaps, is given a double dose of tranquilizers and passes out. His pulse is so low that Saunders and his assistant Max believe he’s dead. In a frantic attempt to salvage the evening, Saunders persuades Max to get into Morelli's Otello costume and fool the audience into thinking he's Il Stupendo. Max succeeds admirably, but Morelli comes to and gets into his other costume ready to perform. What follows is a chain-reaction of mistaken identity, plot twists, double entendres, innuendoes, and constant entrances and exits through many doors. A sensation on Broadway and in London's West End, this madcap screwball comedy is guaranteed to leave audiences teary-eyed with laughter.

"Rabbit Hole"

by David Lindsay-Abaire

Presented with special permission by Dramatists Play Service Inc

directed by Debra Bob

  • April 20-23: 8:00 pm
  • April 24: 2:00 pm, Matinee
  • April 26-30: 8:00 pm

Winner of the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for drama, ‘Rabbit Hole’ is a beautifully crafted work of great sensitivity which shifts perfectly from hilarity to grief.
Becca & Howie Corbett have everything a family could want, until an accident turns their world upside down. This is a story that recognizes that the memory of past losses cannot be fully erased; moving forward always requires looking back.
This play is not to be missed as it offers an intimate look into a family, poignant and relat-able; it has something special and real to offer the audience.
