About the Show
By Nick Dear
Adapted from the novel by Mary Shelley
This electrifying tale of a creature cast away by his creator into a hostile world—only to wind his way back in a dangerous game of destruction—has captivated audiences for over 200 years. The gothic story comes to life in a fresh adaptation, animating the themes of social rejection, intellectual hubris, and the inception of good and evil.

About the Show
Written by Adam Long, Daniel Singer, and Jess Winfield
Additional material written by Reed Martin
Long title, but a fast-paced, high-energy play where our rag tag cast attempts to perform all of Shakespeare's plays in less than two hours...or else there could be dire consequences! It may not help you pass your Romeo and Juliet reading quiz, but stranger things have happened and will happen during the show.
There will be blood and crossdressing. That's just how Shakespeare wrote it.
Recommended for mature audiences.

About the Show
Based on Sholem Aleichem stories
Book by Joseph Stein
Music by Jerry Bock
Lyrcis by Sheldon Harnick
Original Production Directed and Choreographed by Jerome Robbins
Produced by special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI)
One of the most popular musicals in American musical theatre, Fiddler on the Roof has successfully appealed to cultures all over the world for generations with songs such as "Sunrise, Sunset" and "Tradition." Tevye, a poor dairy farmer in a small Russian village, has raised his five daughters with his wife according to Jewish tradition. But one by one, his three oldest daughters resist tradition by marrying the men they choose rather than those designated by a matchmaker. Meanwhile, the Tsar’s increasing persecution of Russian Jews leads to the violent disruption of the villagers’ lives.
Through laughter and tears, joy and sorrow, this musical will speak to families of all races, ages, and backgrounds, as Tevye and his resilient family experience the daily ups and downs any human can identify with, and the kind of oppression we all must ultimately acknowledge.
