of the Red Hot Lovers Written
by Neil Simon ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ South Pacific South Pacific concerns the lives of the US military men, nurses, and aboriginal natives occupying a Polynesian island during World War II. It is also two parallel love stories, both threatened by the dangers of prejudice and war. Navy nurse Nellie Forbush has fallen for French planter Emile de Becque, but when she learns that the mother of his children was an island native she is unable to overcome the prejudices she was raised with and refuses to marry him. Meanwhile, Lt. Joe Cable has fallen for Bloody Mary's daughter Liat, but denies himself a future with her out of the same fears that haunt Nellie. When Joe and Emile are sent on a life-threatening mission, Nellie must decide what is most important to her. This passionate musical includes some of Rodgers and Hammerstein's most beloved songs, including "Some Enchanted Evening", "I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right out of My Hair", "Bali Ha'i", "There Is Nothing Like a Dame", and "This Nearly Was Mine". Directed and Choreographed by Ron Chisolm
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Company On the night of his 35th birthday, confirmed bachelor Robert contemplates his unmarried state. Frightened by commitment, Robert is searching for answers to the big questions of love. He looks for answers in the lives of his married, once married, or soon to be married friends who we meet in vignette after hilarious vignette. An honest, witty, and sophisticated look at relationships, this landmark musical is as contemporary and relevant as the day it was first produced. The brilliant Sondheim score includes "Being Alive", "The Ladies Who Lunch", "Side by Side", and "You Could Drive a Person Crazy". Directed and Choreographed by Ray Kennedy Book
by George Furth ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cabaret Cabaret,
the musical masterpiece that revolutionized the genre, is a multi-layered
look at the debauched fantasy world that was Berlin preceding the devastating
reality of World War II. It brings 1931 Berlin to madcap and menacing
life inside and outside the Kit Kat Klub. Inside, starry-eyed chanteuse
Sally Bowles and the club's omnisexual emcee master the art of illusion,
bringing happiness and decadence to the lives of Berliners; outside, the
spectre of Nazism grows around them and threatens to destroy their lives.
Cabaret is a beautiful, disturbing evocation of life and love, and features
an uber-catchy Kander and Ebb score. Directed
and Choreographed by Ray Kennedy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown A
day in the life of the Peanuts gang - a day made up of little moments
picked from all the days of Charlie Brown, all strung together on the
string of a single day, from bright uncertain morning to hopeful starlit
evening. Who can forget Charlie Brown's desire to hit that home run, or
his determination to fly a kite? Combine that with Lucy's unrelenting
love for pianist and Beethoven fanatic, Schroeder; Linus's affection for
his beloved blue blanket; Snoopy's epic adventures fighting the Red Baron,
and much more. The result is a wild ride appropriate for all ages and
a delightful show to be shared and enjoyed by the entire family. Directed by Richard Bunting Based
on the comic strip Peanuts by Charles M. Schulz ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ALL
