School for Scandal
by Richard Brinsley Sheridan, Directed by Mishia Burns Edwards
October 8-24, 2010
First performed in London at the Drury Lane Theatre in 1777, this stylized comedy is a classic of 18th-century English literature. With character names such as Surface, Teazle, Snake, Crabtree, Backbite, Candour, and Sneerwell, School for Scandal delves headlong into the gossip and slander that rules the worlds of scandal mongers. School for Scandal illuminates themes of the deceptive nature of appearances and the fickleness of reputation.
1940s Radio Hour
by Walton Jones, Directed by Laura Bidgood
December 3-19, 2010
Join The Mutual Manhattan Variety Cavalcade from the Hotel Astor's Algonquin Room on December 21, 1942! The spirit of that bygone era when the world was at war and pop music meant "Strike Up the Band" and "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" are captured as a harassed producer copes with a drunk lead singer, the delivery boy who wants a chance in front of the microphone, the second banana who dreams of singing a ballad, and the trumpet playing sound effects man who chooses a fighter plane over Glenn Miller.
Art
by Yasmina Reza, Directed by Barbe Marshall
January 28-February 13, 2011
Artis a comedy that questions art and friendship among three long-time friends, Serge, Marc, and Yvan. Serge, indulging his penchant for modern art, buys a large, expensive, completely white painting. Marc is horrified, and their relationship suffers considerable strain as a result of their differing opinions about what constitutes "art". Yvan, caught in the middle of the conflict, tries to please and mollify both of them.
Marat/Sade
by Peter Weiss, Directed by Garrick Dietze
March 25-April 10, 2011
The Persecution and Assassination of Jean-Paul Marat as Performed by the Inmates of the Asylum of Charenton Under the Direction of the Marquis de Sade is one of the most polarizing theatrical experiences of all time - and the winner of the 1966 Tony Award for Best Play - "Marat/Sade" throws the audience into a nightmare of insanity as the head of the Asylum of Charenton attempts to maintain control of a performance that is as likely to erupt into an uprising as the events it depicts. Wild shifts between philosophical argument and physical violence keep the audience of the play as well as the audience in the theater off-guard and forced to confront class disparity, the boundaries of art and the nature of revolution.
The Who's Tommy
by Pete Townshend, Directed by Bradley Donaldson
May 20-June 19, 2011
One of rock's greatest albums comes to life in this psychedelic exploration of family, faith and redemption. After witnessing a brutal murder, young Tommy loses his ability to interact with the outside world. Retreating into his world of isolation, Tommy suffers abuse from opportunistic relatives and neighbors. His unexpected penchant for pinball reshapes him into a modern messiah but threatens to destroy him as well. Featuring such classic songs as "Pinball Wizard" "Acid Queen" and "Tommy Can You Hear Me?" Tommy is a timeless classic.
