Fall

November 8 – 23, 2024

Winner of the 1998 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, How I Learned to Drive is a darkly humorous and moving tale about a woman’s complicated relationship with her charismatic uncle. The story follows Li’l Bit’s path from adolescence to adulthood as she discovers family secrets, navigates growing pains, and develops her own sense of right and wrong. Vogel’s unfiltered examination of Li’l Bit’s drive towards womanhood resonates as strongly today as when it was first staged.

Content Warning: This play deals with sexual abuse, incest, misogyny, and pedophilia. Certain scenes may be disturbing to some audience members.

Winter

February 14 – March 1, 2025

It’s 1593 in London, and sometime player / playwright William Shakespeare is struggling to finish his latest work, Romeo and Ethel, the Pirate’s Daughter. Disguised as a man (since women are forbidden on the stage), young Viola de Lesseps auditions and wins a leading role in this new play ... and in Will’s heart. Based on the Academy Award-winning film, Shakespeare in Love is an enchanting, hilarious, and romantic telling of the inspiration for Shakespeare’s immortal Juliet, as well as for the story of undying love he created for her.

Spring

May 2 – 17, 2025

It’s a dark time in a dark city, where a 20-year drought has led to severe water restrictions — including a ban on private toilets. Fee-based public toilets are controlled by the evil Urine Good Company, which is gleefully gouging huge profits off a very basic human need. In all this wasteland, can a golden-throated hero arise who has the heart, the hope, and the pipes to lead the people to freedom?
Winner of multiple Tony awards, Urinetown the Musical is an irreverent satire, whose sharp wit and non-stop humor present us with the endlessly comic side of unchecked capitalism, corporate mismanagement, and social irresponsibility.
