Wintersville High School, 1976. Richard Miller is the hip new Social Studies instructor at his crumbling old alma matter, and decides to teach his students about the U.S. criminal justice system by staging a "drug game," where the students play pushers, buyers, narcs, cops, and lawyers, using Good & Plenty candies as the contraband of choice. Bad idea -- after a hilarious unraveling of authority, with switcheroos and betrayals galore, most of the school has landed in actual jail. A brilliant twist on high school madness, and a compelling meditation on democracy, as well.

Once-successful playwright Sidney Bruhl is going through a bit of a dry spell, and unable to write a sure-fire hit. To make his struggle even more frustrating, Clifford Anderson, a student of one of Sidney's writing seminars, has recently sent him a copy of his first attempt at playwriting for Sidney's review and advice--so perfect in its construction that, as Sidney says, "A gifted director couldn't even hurt it." The play, entitled "Deathtrap," is a five character, two act thriller. Out of his desperate desire to once again be the king of Broadway, Sidney, much to his wife Myra's concern, toys with the idea of doing whatever it takes to get rid of Clifford and present the play as his own. However, shortly after Clifford arrives, it's clear that things are not what they seem. Even Helga Ten Dorp, the Dutch psychic from next door, and Porter Milgram, Sidney's observant attorney, can only speculate where the line between truth and deception lies. And in the end, it all boils down to one question: how far is someone willing to go to achieve success? Directed by Sam Phillips Assistant directed by Nicole Nigro and Saran Polchan Cast list: Sidney Bruhl - Tyler Davey Myra Bruhl - Katie Mihelarakis Clifford Anderson - Brendan Eck Helga Ten Dorp - Lauren Henning Porter Milgrim - Sean Kelly Circle Mirror Transformation
In the small town of Shirley, Vermont, five strangers gather in a dance studio to embark on a unique journey together in a creative drama class for adults. Taught by Marty, their free-spirited and supportive leader, the group -- Schultz, a recently divorced, emotionally vulnerable carpenter, Teresa, an earnest and vibrant former actress, James, Marty’s quiet and genial husband, and Lauren, a reserved and self-conscious high schooler -- move through a series of acting exercises, ranging from the heartbreaking to the ridiculous. In this one small room, through these few seemingly trivial games, quiet wars are waged, emotional wounds are nursed, and healing is finally, slowly, able to begin. In Annie Baker’s quiet masterpiece, Circle Mirror Transformation, the audience takes a transcendent journey through the mundane into the profound.

Aspiring composer Artie Shaughnessy lives as a zookeeper in Queens with his Schizophrenic wife, Bananas. He dreams of moving to Hollywood with the woman downstairs, Bunny, who he is having an affair with. This serious story quickly turns into a fast-paced comedy with nuns who want to see the pope, Artie's son gone AWOL armed with a bomb, and the semi-deaf wife of a movie producer. The House of Blue Leaves is a dark comedy containing elements of farce with serious themes and concepts to give a new view on what in life to take seriously.

In this seductive, deliciously dark comedy, Thomas, a playwright-slash-director, has written an adaptation of the classic novel, Venus in Fur, by Leopold von Sacher-Masoch. Frustrated by the lack of talent at auditions for his strong, feminine, and experienced lead, Vanda von Dunayev, he resolves to go home and soothe his ego. However, he is stopped by Vanda Jordan, a water-logged, foul-mouthed actrice, who manages to swing an audition despite her seeming cluelessness. The further the two get into the reading the more the lines of director, actor, and character blur, and the more the night begins to turn from an audition into something else. Full of humor, sensuality, and absolute power, Venus in Fur questions the established roles within gender and theater. "Wildly Intelligent and sometimes frightening... it constitutes a masterful exploration of the art of acting—onstage and off." Cast: Dana Cinque as Vanda Andrew Leite as Thomas Directed by Makensi Ceriani Assistant Directed by Dalton Brough Poster created by Savannah Welsch The Fantasticks
"Try To Remember" a time when this romantic charmer wasn't enchanting audiences around the world.

The result is a timeless fable of love that manages to be nostalgic and universal at the same time. With its minimal costumes, small band and virtually nonexistent set, The Fantasticks is an intimate show that may be performed in virtually any space, engaging the audience's imagination and showcasing a strong ensemble cast. Its moving tale of young lovers who become disillusioned, only to discover a more mature, meaningful love is punctuated by a bountiful series of catchy, memorable songs, many of which have become classics.

How on earth can a few people do the impossible: act through Shakespeare’s entire canon-37 plays- in 97 minutes? By summarizing the canon through football plays, rap songs, and outrageously condensed, comedy mash-up titles (like Four Weddings and a Transvestite), of course! The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) hilariously summarizes all of Shakespeare’s plays, using reenactments and audience participation. It is famous for holding the (self-proclaimed) record for the shortest production of Hamlet at 43 seconds. An extremely popular play that ran in London for nine years and has enjoyed countless productions in various languages playing throughout the world, The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) entertains and teaches audiences facts about Shakespeare while ensuring them a rollicking good time. While the show itself is partially made up of skits and scenes, there is a linear plot line overarching it all and a goal the characters are trying to obtain. Through the use of smart comedy, this show entertains an audience and allows them to spend time getting to know each character.

Winner of both the Pulitzer Prize and the Tony Award for Best Play, Clybourne Park is a razor-sharp satire about the politics of race. In response to Lorraine Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun, playwright Bruce Norris set up Clybourne Park as a pair of scenes that bookend Hansberry’s piece. These two scenes, fifty years apart, are both set in the same modest bungalow on Chicago’s northwest side that features at the center of A Raisin in the Sun. The first scene takes place before and the second scene takes place after the events of A Raisin in the Sun. In 1959, Russ and Bev are moving out to the suburbs after the tragic death of their son. Inadvertently, they have sold their house to the neighborhood’s first black family. Fifty years later in 2009, the roles are reversed when a young white couple buys the lot in what is now a predominantly black neighborhood, signaling a new wave of gentrification. In both instances, a community showdown takes place, pitting race against real estate with this home as the battleground.

The Cripple of Inishmaan
Set on the remote island of Inishmaan off the west coast of Ireland in 1934, The Cripple of Inishmaan is a strange comic tale in the great tradition of Irish storytelling. As word arrives on Inishmaan that a Hollywood director is coming to a neighboring island to make a movie, the one person who wants to be in the film more than anybody is young Cripple Billy, an unloved boy whose chief occupation has been gazing at cows and yearning for a girl who wants no part of him. Billy is determined to cross the sea and audition for a role, and news of his audacity quickly ripples through the rumor starved community. The play evolves into a merciless portrayal of a world so comically cramped and mean-spirited that hope is an affront to its order.

True West
True West is a character study that examines the relationship between Austin, a screenwriter, and his older brother Lee. It is set in the kitchen of their mother's home 40 miles east of Los Angeles. Austin is house-sitting while their mother is in Alaska, and there he is confronted by his brother, who proceeds to bully his way into staying at the house and using Austin's car. In addition, the screenplay which Austin is pitching to his connection in Hollywood somehow gets taken over by the pushy con-man tactics of Lee, and the brothers find themselves forced to cooperate in the creation of a story that will make or break both their lives. In the process, the conflict between the brothers creates a heated situation in which their roles as successful family man and nomadic drifter are somehow reversed, and each man finds himself admitting that he had somehow always wished he were in the other's shoes.

She's spent her entire life preparing for one thing: Oxford University. After all, it is her parents' dream for her. Despite her stellar academic, Jenny desperately yearns for a sophisticated life. That’s where David, a significantly older man, comes in. He is everything that Jenny wants: classy, rich, cultured, and worldly. Though seemingly wonderful, David has a few deep secrets.

It is a story of disillusionment, growing up, and finding inner strength despite failure.

Play On!
Play On! is a comedic play featuring a theater group trying desperately to put on a play in spite of maddening interference from a haughty author who keeps revising the script. Act I is a rehearsal of “Murder Most Foul,” Act II is the near disastrous dress rehearsal (where lines are forgotten and changed by the author), and Act III is the actual performance in which anything that can go wrong does. Think the worst NRT show you’ve ever seen, add in hilarious sound effects, missing props, inebriated actors, missing lines and cues, and a playwright from hell, and you have an idea of what to expect. Directed by Gavin Calgaro and Katie Keith CAST Gerry - Julie Whelan Aggie - Gabby DeRosa Louise - Emily McKenzie Polly - Alexis Lunardi Henry - Alex Janick Violet - Katie Blankemeyer Billy - Justin Strupczewski Saul - Alex Melso Smitty - Sonia Rayka Phyllis - Amanda Rees |
