2026-2027 Season

COMEDY
(Rated: V)

A Hitchcock thriller smashed together with Monty Python style absurdity. This fast, clever romp features nonstop laughs and over 150 characters played by just four actors, an onstage plane crash, handcuffs, espionage, and a dash of old-fashioned romance.

DRAMA
(Rated: V, S)

Set in a strict boarding school, this reimagining of Romeo and Juliet turns Shakespeare’s words into an act of rebellion. Performed by an all-male cast using nearly all of the original text, the production is physical and electrifying. Poetry as resistance.

MUSICAL

MUSICAL

Winner of six Tony Awards, Dear Evan Hansen is a contemporary musical about loneliness, family, grief, and the need to be seen. Intimate and emotionally powerful, it tells a deeply personal story about connection, truth, and the stories we tell to survive.

COMEDY
(Rated: L, M)

What begins as a polite conversation between two sets of parents quickly spirals into chaos. Yasmina Reza’s fast, biting comedy peels back civility to reveal the petty and wildly entertaining truth underneath. No one gets out looking good. And that’s the fun of it.

DRAMA
(Rated: L, M, S)

An all-girls Catholic school drama club races to stage Antigone until their trusted director betrays them just before opening night. As rehearsal and real life collide, the students are forced to confront what it really means to do the right thing. Smart and unexpectedly funny, this play asks: when everything falls apart… does the show go on?
