letters they exchange, but the identity of their admirers
remains unknown. Discover with Amalia and Georg the
identity of their true loves and all the twists and turns along
the way! - See more at:



RUMORS
By Neil Simon

June 2 – June 18
Industry Night: June 12th
RATED R

At a large, tastefully appointed Sneden's Landing
townhouse, the Deputy Mayor of New York has just shot
himself. Though only a flesh wound, four couples are about
to experience a severe attack of Farce. Gathering for their
tenth wedding anniversary, the host lies bleeding in the
other room and his wife is nowhere in sight. His lawyer, Ken
and wife Chris must get "the story" straight before the other
guests arrive. As the confusions and mis-communications
mount, the evening spins off into classic farcical hilarity.



THE CRUCIBLE
By Arthur Miller

July 14 - 30
Industry Night: July 24th
RATED PG

The story focuses upon a young farmer, his wife, and a
young servant-girl who maliciously causes the wife's arrest
for witchcraft. The farmer brings the girl to court to admit
the lie—and it is here that the monstrous course of bigotry
and deceit is terrifyingly depicted. The farmer, instead of
saving his wife, finds himself also accused of witchcraft and
ultimately condemned with a host of others.



SISTER ACT: The Musical
Music by Alan Menken
Lyrics by Glenn Slater

Industry Night: November 13th
RATED PG

When disco diva, Deloris Van Cartier, witnesses a murder,
she is put in protective custody in the one place the cops
are sure she won't be a found: a convent! Disguised as a
nun, she finds herself at odds with both the rigid lifestyle
and uptight Mother Superior. Using her unique disco moves
and singing talent to inspire the choir, Deloris breathes new
life into the church and community but, in doing so, blows
her cover. Soon, the gang is giving chase, only to find them
up against Deloris and the power of her newly found
sisterhood.
