It’s the 1590s - welcome to the Renaissance! Brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are desperate to write a hit play but are stuck in the shadow of Shakespeare, that Renaissance rock star known also as “The Bard.” When a local soothsayer foretells that the future of theatre involves singing, dancing, and acting at the same time, Nick and Nigel set out to write the world’s very first musical. But amidst the scandalous excitement of opening night, the Bottom Brothers realize that reaching the top means being true to thine own self, and all that jazz. This hilarious mash-up of sixteenth-century Shakespeare and twenty-first-century Broadway garnered ten Tony Award nominations!

A new take on an old classic! Perhaps one of the most famous Christmas stories, A Christmas Carol, is told through the eyes of Charles Dickens. At the opening curtain, Charles Dickens himself is introduced to the audience, ready to present one of the famed platform readings of his stories that packed auditoriums in Europe and America. So begins the timeless story of Ebenezer Scrooge who is visited by the ghost of his former business partner Jacob Marley and the spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come. Dickens weaves in and out of the action helping Scrooge navigate until the iconic “God Bless Us Everyone” finale.

Emma Woodhouse is clever, educated, and energetic… and in imminent danger of going mad with idleness. In a time when respectable ladies are expected to sit quietly at home, she desperately needs projects. Ever the romantic, Emma prides herself on being the best matchmaker in town. Goaded by her friend George Knightley, she sets out on a quest to set up the adorable ingénue Harriet with a fitting suitor. But love has its own agenda with plenty of screwball comedy and twists and turns in store – including a few for Emma herself.
