Noises off
By Michael Frayn
Directed by Brie Michaels

This uproarious comedy follows the on and off stage antics of an inept acting troupe as they stumble from bumbling dress rehearsal to disastrous closing night. Everything that can go wrong does, as the actors try desperately to hang on to their lines, their sanity, and the furniture. Add a slippery plate of sardines and a slew of slamming and you have the most side-splitting backstage comedy ever written.

Fuddy Meers
By David Lindsay-Abaire

In Fuddy Meers, Pulitzer Prize winner David Lindsay-Abaire sends us down a wild comic roller coaster ride. Claire has a rare form of amnesia which wipes her memory clean whenever she sleeps. Each day, her husband Richard brings her coffee, and explains who she is. This morning, though, things are going to be much different. On a day that could change everything, Claire discovers that you have to forget everything you know to remember who you really are.

Once Upon a Mattress
Book by Jay Thompson, Dean Fuller and Marshall Barer
Music by Mary Rodgers, Lyrics by Marshall Barer, Libretto by Marshall Barer
Directed by Bernie Cardell

Cursed, King Sextimus is unable to speak. His terror of a wife, Queen Aggraviane, has taken control of the kingdom. In an attempt to keep her son, Prince Dauntless, single, she has decreed that only a princess that can pass her test may marry him. Furthermore, no one else in the kingdom may marry until he does. Lady Larken and Sir Harry are extremely disturbed by this fact as Lady Larken is now pregnant. Luckily, Sir Harry is able to find an amazing princess, Winnifred the Woebegone, who instantly catches the attention of the prince, and is able to pass the Queen's supposedly impassable sensitivity test.

Deathtrap

Ira Levin's murder comedy is about a once-successful mystery drama writer who announces that he would commit murder to get another hit on Broadway. One of his students comes up with a script he considers failure proof and is invited to come to his home for a "story conference." There follows a complicated game of murderous, musical chairs, keeping audiences on the edge of their seats!
