2024-25 Season
Molière’s Tartuffe
Adapted by Richard Wilbur
One of the most enduring comedic masterpieces in the theatrical canon, Tartuffe is given an astonishingly clever translation by Pulitzer Prize poet Richard Wilbur. The charlatan Tartuffe worms his way into a wealthy family causing disruption and pandemonium. With wicked precision and brilliantly rhyming verses, this highly satiric comedy skewers religious hypocrisy, duplicity, lust, and self-inflicted chaos. This exciting take on a classic is not to be missed!
Ages 13 and up.
November 14-16 at 8 p.m.
November 22 and 23 at 8 p.m.
November 24 at 2 p.m.
Alice by Heart
Music by Duncan Sheik
Lyrics by Steven Sater
Book by Steven Sater and Jessie Nelson
From the Tony award-winning creators of Spring Awakening, Alice by Heart is a touching musical inspired by Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. In the rubble of the London Blitz of World War II, Alice Spencer’s teen life is turned upside down when she and her friend Alfred are forced to take shelter in an underground tube station. When the ailing Alfred is quarantined, Alice encourages him to escape with her into their cherished book and journey down the rabbit hole to Wonderland. As they travel through the tale, Alice by Heart encourages us to celebrate the transformational power of the imagination, even in the harshest of times.
Ages 13 and up.
April 3-5 at 8 p.m.
