Multicultural mayhem. Love. Larceny. And death!
By George F. Walker
Directed by Andrea Wasserman
World Premiere
Two families collide in this dark comedy written by acclaimed Canadian playwright, George F. Walker. Known for his wit and biting commentary on city living, Walker's We the Family looks at the after-effects of a wedding between culturally divergent families. As they struggle to understand one another, their own failings and bad choices set them on a collision course with a devastating - and hilarious - end.

By William Shakespeare
Directed by Paolo Santalucia
Perhaps the world's most iconic tragedy, William Shakespeare's Hamlet has all of the elements of a great drama: courtly intrigue, murder, revenge, family betrayal and forbidden seduction. With some of the most memorable and sublime poetry in the English language, Hamlet is a timeless tragedy that is not to be missed.

Recently made into an award-winning film, Into the Woods is an all-ages, musical clash of fairy tales. Characters like Cinderella, Jack, Red Riding Hood and several others are shown just what would happen should all of their wishes come true. Worlds collide as wishes and quests meet a delightfully conniving witch on a dark journey Into the Woods.

Boeing Boeing is a non-stop comedy and a romp of international proportions. Full of hijinks, near misses and sexual innuendo, Boeing Boeing is like a bite of fluffy French pastry - a delicious treat, except this one comes without any guilt or troublesome consequences.

In the fast-moving milieu of Madison Avenue, social drinking is almost an occupational necessity and one that fast-rising young Joe Clay adopts with too ready ease. Unfortunately, the girl he meets and marries shares his proclivity and while they continue to tell themselves that they drink because they choose to, it is soon apparent that their habit has become a serious problem.
Days of Wine and Roses was an acclaimed 1958 teleplay by JP Miller which dramatized the problems of alcoholism.
On stage May 9-23, 2015.
