"Amadeus",
Sept. 12th - 28th 2008
By Peter Shaffer
directed by Jon Heron

In these days when everyone has fifteen minutes of fame, Amadeus brings home to us the true meaning of genius and inspiration in art.  Hilariously funny yet deeply moving and mysterious, it tells the story of Antonio Salieri, the court composer/musician, who plots Mozart's downfall, only to be defeated again and again by the glory of Mozart's music.  A true feast for the eyes and ears, a glorious celebration of genius and our responses to it.  1980 Tony Award for Best Play!

"The Clean House", Nov. 7th - 23rd 2008
By Sarah Ruhl
directed by Rob Pherson

A tender and romantic comedy -- wildly theatrical and intensely poetic -- about fighting the dirt in your life, finding your true love at any age, and the quest for the perfect joke.  Housecleaning and joke telling take on new levels of meaning in the lives of four extraordinary women.  Matilde, the maid who hates to clean, is on a mission to find the perfect joke that leads to the transformation of the household and the conclusion that the best things in life are infinitely worth waiting for.

"12 Angry Men", Jan. 16th - Feb. 1st, 2009
By Reginald Rose
directed by John Dowgin

Originally a teleplay -- later an acclaimed 1957 four-star film developed by Rose and Henry Fonda -- this taut, absorbing and compelling classic American drama reaches far beyond the close confines of its sweltering New York City jury room setting.  The all-male dynamic and dramatic relationships that develop among the jurors are powerful and provocative, and keep audiences spellbound to this day.

"Table Manners", March 6th - 22nd, 2009
By Alan Ayckbourn
directed by Michael Mooney

Table Manners, the best of Ackybourn's landmark trilogy The Norman Conquests, exposes one of the most dysfunctional families you've ever met.  Norman falls instantly in love with every woman he meets.  But when he plans a weekend away with his sister-in-law, all the seams in the family fabric begin to unravel.  At home, around the dinner table, the family tries to muddle through meals without losing their "table manners," with results that are both hysterically funny and poignant.

"The Goat, or Who is Sylvia?", April 24th - May 9th, 2009
By Edward Albee
directed by  Joseph Porter

This often shocking and always thought-provoking play is a wickedly funny examination of the meaning of love.  It presents a family embroiled in a predicament that slowly and inexorably leads to tragedy, and, although we witness an excruciating -- and excruciatingly funny -- dilemma, we stay riveted to it because the hand of fate shows itself to be the master of our lives, a master from whom we cannot disengage.  2002 Tony Award for Best Play and Pulitzer Prize nominee!

"A Piece of My Heart", June 12th - 28th, 2009
By Shirley Lauro
directed by Fred Cuozzo

A true drama of six women -- five nurses and a country/western singer sent to entertain the troops  -- who participated in the Viet Nam war.  With war so present in America's consciousness at this time, here is a play that helps us to experience what it was like for each of these women before, during, and after her tour in the war-torn jungle.  Deeply moving and thought provoking, a powerful mirror of our times with a poignant ending at The Wall in Washington.
