DILEMMAS WITH DINNER
By Robin Roberts
April 16-25, 2021
Junior executive Brooke invites her boss and his wife over for a dinner in the hopes of securing a promotion. While frantically getting ready, Brooke and her husband discover the hired help is coincidentally the boss’ ex-daughter-in-law. Just when it seems everything that could go wrong has gone wrong, Brooke’s boss has an unfortunate announcement to make—though not as unfortunate as the candlestick attack, appetizer toss, and general chaos that then ensues.

The Sunshine Boys
by Neil Simon
AUGUST 13-22, 2021
Al and Willie as “Lewis and Clark” were top-billed vaudevillians for over forty years. Now they aren’t even speaking. When CBS requests them for a “History of Comedy” retrospective, a grudging reunion brings the two back together, along with a flood of memories, miseries, and laughs. The story follows the attempt by a young theatrical agent to re-unite his elderly uncle, a former vaudevillian great, with his long-time stage partner for a TV reunion. Despite their celebrated reputation, the two old men have not spoken in twelve years. Besides remastering their sketch, the two men have numerous issues to work out before they are ready to return to the public eye.

November 12-21, 2021
The Trial of the Century! A year after his miraculous transformation, Ebenezer Scrooge is back to his old ways and is suing Jacob Marley and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future for breaking and entering, kidnapping, slander, pain and suffering, attempted murder and the intentional infliction of emotional distress. The ghosts employ England's most charismatic, savvy, and clever barrister. Scrooge, that old penny pincher, represents himself. One by one, Bob Cratchit, Scrooge's nephew Fred, solicitor and philanthropist Sara Anne Wainwright, and the ghosts themselves take the witness stand to give their account of the night in question. Will the judge find the spirits and Marley guilty? What of Scrooge? Has he truly gone back to his old ways? Join us for the comedy Trial of Ebenezer Scrooge.
Blithe Spirit
By Noel Coward
February 12-21, 2021
The smash comedy hit of London and Broadway stages, this much-revived classic offers up fussy, cantankerous novelist Charles Condomine, re-married but haunted (literally) by the ghost of his late first wife the clever and insistent Elvira, who is called up by a visiting “happy medium,” one Madame Acarti. As the (worldly an un-) personalities clash, Charles’ current wife, Ruth, is accidentally killed, “passes over,” joins Elvira, and the two “blithe spirits” haunt the hapless Charles into perpetuity. (PG13)
