Become a member of our cast and theater company If you’re new to the stage, let us help you develop your talents into the skills you’ll need for the best of classic and contemporary theater. This story surrounds a charming rogue who contrives to serve a short sentence in an army mental institution rather than in prison. This, he learns, was a mistake. He clashes with the head nurse, a fierce martinet. A battle of wills quickly develops as he leads others out of introversion, stages a revolt to watch the World Series and arranges a late night party. For these offenses, he must pay an ultimate and shocking penalty. Our version is updated to include male and female inmates.

In this fun, fractured fairy tale, a substitute narrator is called in to present fairy tales but as each tale begins, the main characters show up to correct the newbie narrator. Turns out, some characters have hysterical peculiarities: Rapunzel is a diva, Cinderella is a clean freak, the Three Little Pigs are hypochondriacs, Little Red Riding Hood is a lawyer defending the Wolf, and more! The chaos continues
until the frustrated narrator finally breaks down. It’s up to the characters to comfort the narrator and explain what really happened after “once upon a time.” No previous acting experience necessary.

This production will be cast with children ages 9 to 18 (or with director’s consent) who have NEVER had a large or leading role in a play, anywhere; no previous acting experience necessary. Yearbook is a positive play about the humor, determination and caring that exists in most schools. Susan and Beth enlist the help of Jack and Eric to move the boxes of hot-off-the-press yearbooks that just arrived. They stop to flip through the yearbook pages, reminiscing through flashback scenes about the year’s highlights.

This production will be cast with children ages 9 to 18 (or with director’s consent) who have played
larger or leading roles in past plays, as well as those with or without acting experience. This play is one you’ll want to be a part of – a satirical/absurdist comedy-drama about some of the issues children face in Jr. High and High School as well as in their lives outside of school. What do a blond girl, a new boy in the neighborhood and a child with a challenge all have in common? this highly acclaimed story may give us insights into what our children deal with and answers that will have us roaring with laughter and cheering for the underdog.
