Gutenberg! The Musical

Musical Comedy by Scott Brown and Anthony King

September 15-27, 2009

Hold the presses for this brand new uproarious and hysterically funny two-man musical spoof!  A pair of aspiring playwrights perform a backers audition for their new project: A big, splashy musical about printing press inventor Johann Gutenberg.  With an unending supply of enthusiasm, Bud and Doug sing all the songs and play all the parts in their crass historical epic, with the hope that one of the producers in attendance will give them a Broadway contract, fulfilling their ill-advised dreams.

Boeing Boeing

Farce by Marc Camoletti, adapted by Beverley Cross

High-flying and side-splitting, Boeing Boeing was revived on Broadway in 2008 in a Tony-winning production.

Southern Play by Horton Foote

April 13-25, 2010

Matriarch Stella Gordon is determined not to divide her 100-year old Texas estate, despite her family s declining wealth and the looming financial crisis.  But her three children have another plan.  Old resentments and sibling rivalries surface, as the members of this hilariously dysfunctional family go head to head to see who might claim the biggest piece of the pie in Dividing the Estate.

 

 

Breaking Up is Hard to Do

Featuring the Music of Neil Sedaka

May 26-June 6, 2010

Set at a Catskills resort in 1960, this is the sweetly comic story of Lois and Marge, two friends from Brooklyn in search of good times and romance over one wild Labor Day weekend.  The songs, the costumes and the sensibility of the characters exude the essence of those simpler days and create instant nostalgia for the Baby Boomers, while the younger set can relate to the universal themes of teenage crushes and breakups.  The score showcases 18 Neil Sedaka classics, including Where the Boys Are, Sweet Sixteen, Calendar Girl, and, of course, the chart-topping Breaking Up is Hard to Do.
