yankees DAMN YANKEES, presented by Performance Now Theatre Company

Faust meets professional baseball in the Broadway classic DAMN YANKEES. Middle-aged baseball fanatic Joe Boyd trades his soul to the Devil, also known as Mr. Applegate, for a chance to lead his favorite team to victory in the pennant race against the New York Yankees. As young baseball sensation Joe Hardy, he transforms the hapless Washington Senators into a winning team, only to realize the true worth of the life he's left behind. Joe ultimately outsmarts Applegate, returns to his former self, and shepherds the Senators to the World Series.

 

Meet Me in St. Louis, presented by Colorado Christian University

This charming musical tale follows the Smith family of St. Louis, Missouri in the exciting year preceding the World's Fair of 1904.  The costumes and romances are delightfully representative of a younger America, and song favorites include "Skip to My Lou" and "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas", as well as-of course!-the beloved title song.
