A
Delicious Comedy by MARC CAMOLETTI
Adapted by ROBIN HAWDON
February 26 -
March 21, 2010
Bernard is planning a
weekend with his chic Parisian mistress in a French farmhouse. He has
arranged for a cordon bleu cook to prepare gourmet delights, is packing
his wife Jacqueline off to her mother's, and has even invited his best
friend Robert to provide the alibi. It's foolproof; what could possibly
go wrong? Suppose Robert turns up not knowing why he has been invited?
Suppose Robert and Jacqueline are secret lovers? What happens if the
cook is mistaken for the mistress and the mistress for the cook, but
the mistress can't cook? An evening of hilarious confusion ensues as
Bernard and Robert improvise at breakneck speed. Leave the kids at
home; this one is for the grown-ups.

June 18 - July

When Jerome Kern was
asked where Irving Berlin ranked in American music he said "Irving
Berlin has no place in American music. He is American music." I
Love a Piano is a new musical that looks at America through the
perceptive and hopeful eyes of Irving Berlin. With over 60 great songs,
this all-singing, all-dancing review follows the journey of a piano
from Tin Pan Alley to the present as it winds its way though the lives
of Americans. A swingin' Dixieland band accompanies the cast as they
sing their way through such Irving Berlin classics as Blue Skies,
Puttin' on the Ritz, God Bless America, I Love a Piano, A Pretty Girl
is Like a Melody, Steppin' Out With My Baby, Easter Parade, There's No
Business Like Show Business, and so many more!

Two English actors, Jack
and Leo, find themselves so down on their luck that they are performing
Scenes from Shakespeare on the Moose Lodge
circuit in the Amish country of Pennsylvania. When they hear that an
old lady in York, PA, is about to die and leave her fortune to her two
long lost English nephews, they resolve to pass themselves off as her
beloved relatives and get the cash. The trouble is, when they get to
York, they find out that the relatives aren't nephews, but nieces!
Romantic entanglements abound,
especially when Leo falls head-over-petticoats in love with the old
lady's vivacious niece, Meg, who's engaged to the local minister. Meg
knows that there's a wide world out there, but it's not until she meets
"Maxine and Stephanie" (AKA Jack and Leo) that she finally gets a taste
of it. (Parental guidance suggested; small amount of strong language
and some sexual content)
