A Few Good Men By Aaron Sorkin (September 11 – October 11) This Broadway hit about the trial of two Marines for complicity in the death of a fellow Marine at Guantanamo Bay sizzles on stage. The Navy lawyer, a callow young man more interested in softball games than the case, expects a plea bargain and a cover up of what really happened. Prodded by a female member of his defense team, the lawyer eventually makes a valiant effort to defend his clients and, in so doing, puts the military mentality and the Marine code of honor on trial. "Fresh and adroitly updated and conditioned to our time and socio-political climate."-NY Post. The approximate run-time is 2 hours 40 minutes, including intermission.
THE 39 STEPS Adapted by Patrick Barlow from the novel by John Buchan (November 6 – December 6) Mix a Hitchcock masterpiece with a juicy spy novel, add a dash of Monty Python and you have The 39 Steps, a fast-paced whodunit for anyone who loves the magic of theatre! This two-time Tony® and Drama Desk Award-winning treat is packed with nonstop laughs, over 150 zany characters (played by a ridiculously talented cast of 4), an on-stage plane crash, handcuffs, missing fingers and some good old-fashioned romance! A riotous blend of virtuoso performances and wildly inventive stagecraft, The 39 Steps amounts to an unforgettable evening of pure pleasure! The approximate run-time is 2 hours, including intermission.
It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play By Joe Landry (December 16 – December 20) Back by popular demand! This beloved American holiday classic comes to captivating life as a live 1940s radio broadcast. With the help of an ensemble that brings a few dozen characters to the stage, the story of idealistic George Bailey unfolds as he considers ending his life one fateful Christmas Eve. "One of the best holiday shows around. This is a fresh and inventive way of reconnecting with a classic story of love and redemption." - Chicago Sun-Times. The approximate run-time is 1 hour 15 minutes.
YANKEE TAVERN By Steven Dietz (January 8 – February 7) Inside the walls of a crumbling New York tavern, a young couple find themselves caught up in what might be the biggest conspiracy of all. Steven Dietz's acclaimed dramatic thriller is a fierce, funny and ultimately mind-bending work of theatrical power that grips you until the final word. "Dietz is a master of smart dialogue and wily storytelling. He draws us in with characters that intrigue, but the stories they spin can do a number on our beliefs and leave us shattered…Here's a toast to Dietz and his play, which should work its way through the nation's new play network with the staying power of a juicy conspiracy theory." – Palm Beach Arts Paper.
Secret Order By Bob Clyman (March 5 – April 3) A taut, stimulating drama about the moral and ethical dilemmas involved in the high stakes world of medical research. A brilliant young research biologist working in an obscure university lab discovers a possible cure for cancer. When the dynamic director of New York's leading cancer institute becomes his mentor and champion, he is set on a path of acclaim and prestige that could lead directly to the Nobel Prize. But the halls of science twist and turn in surprising ways, and the young Doctor is suddenly thrust into the high-stakes world of medicine, money and power. Starring Saul Elkin and Peter Palmisano.
Lettice & Lovage By Peter Shaffer (April 30 – May 30) Lettice Duffet, an expert on Elizabethan cuisine and medieval weaponry, is an unrelenting but daffy enthusiast of history and the theatre. As a tour guide at one of the least stately of London's stately homes she theatrically embellishes its historical past until Lotte Schoen, an inspector from the Preservation Trust, neither impressed or entertained by Lettice's freewheeling history lessons, fires her. Not one to go without a fight, Lettice engages the stoic, conventional Lotte in a rousing and comedic battle to the death. Starring Anne Gayley and Roz Cramer.
