Music
by Richard Rodgers
Lyrics by Lorenz Hart
Concept by Richard Lewine and John Fearnley
From their first hit song in
1925 through their final show-stopper in 1943, the prolific
team of Rodgers & Hart was continually redefining the
musical theatre with its wit, freshness and intelligence.
In this rousing pastiche, the first act sets the stage for
romance while the second act is comprised of their more
satiric gems. The brief narration highlights the Rodgers
& Hart story, but it's the songs that explain their
success. Perhaps Irving Berlin summed it up best: "Tuneful
and tasty, schmaltzy and smart-music by Rodgers, lyrics
by Hart."

British talk-show host David Frost
has become a lowbrow laughing-stock. Richard M. Nixon has
just resigned the United States presidency in disgrace over
Vietnam and the Watergate scandal. Determined to resurrect
his career, Frost risks everything on a series of interviews
in order to extract an apology from Nixon. The cagey Nixon,
however, is equally bent on redeeming himself in his nation’s
eyes. In the television age, both men are desperate to upstage
each other. The result is the interview that sealed a president’s
legacy.

The show that opened the Douglas
Morrisson Theatre in 1979, and has remained one of the most
requested musicals by our audiences, makes for a dramatic,
richly textured and uplifting tale of enormous fascination.
In 1862 an English widow and her young son arrive at the Royal
Palace in Siam, where she is to serve as tutor to the King's
many children and wives. While keeping a firm grip on their
traditions and values, Anna and the King grow to understand
and, eventually, respect one another in a unique love story.
The ballet, "The Small House of Uncle Thomas," is
one of the all-time marvels of the musical stage.
