Brigadoon
Books and Lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner
Music by Frederick Loewe
Directed by John Thornberry
Rated G

"Once in the Highlands, the Highlands of Scotland, two weary hunters lost their way..."

When Tommy Albright and Jeff Douglas get lost on a hunting trip, they stumble into a legendary village. Once a century, the people of Brigadoon awaken for one day, and then sleep for another hundred years while Brigadoon itself vanishes in the mists. Jeff dismisses the legend, while Tommy falls in love with beautiful Fiona Campbell. But Fiona's betrothed, Harry Beaton, threatens to leave the village -- and if he does, all of Brigadoon will be lost forever.

Fall in love with Lerner and Loewe's magical Scottish fairy tale this September at LTC -- before Brigadoon disappears again!

This is a warm, enriching tale about the Herdmans children, who are without question the worst behaved kids in the history of the world. After attending Sunday School for the first time, mainly for the refreshments, they get cast in the Christmas play. Their "first" Christmas Pageant Ever becomes a new experience in some very surprising ways for everyone involved. This funny and thoroughly unpredictable story will delight children and entertain adults alike.

Over the River and Through the Woods
By Joe DiPietro
Directed by Stephen J. Carver
Rated G

What happens when a grandson's loyalty to his two sets of eccentric, old-fashioned Italian grandparents is tested by the offer of a dream job that threatens to send him to the other end of the country? A series of schemes to keep the grandson around, of course, including bringing to dinner the lovely - and single - Caitlin O'Hare as bait. The result is an endearing, heart-warming comedy about the tug-of-war between ambition and meatballs.

The Diviners
By James Leonard, Jr.
Directed by Nanci VanFleet
Rated PG-10 -- emotionally intense for children.

In tiny Zion, Indiana, mired in the depression, Buddy Layman is the charming town idiot. What's left of Buddy after his mother saved him from drowning is a compelling gift for sensing water coupled with an intense fear of it. The town folk meander through the mundane chores of life, bemoaning what they lack - rain for crops, enough future brides and grooms for all, and a preacher for their salvation. When backsliding preacher C.C. Showers comes to town looking for work, the locals pin on him the badge of savior. C.C. befriends Buddy and finds more in his heart than anyone believed was there. Seeking to cure his constant itch, C.C. is determined to rid Buddy of his hydrophobia. In this allegorical play, that which gives life takes it away and leaves us pondering the costs and consequences of redemption.
