Sense and Sensibility

By Kate Hamill

The spectacular comedic characters, unforgettable relationships, and emotional truths of Jane Austen's classic novel are brought to life in Kate Hamill's brilliantly funny, fast-paced stage adaptation of Sense and Sensibility, which utilizes a chorus of lively Gossips to enhance the sense of a socially stifling world, and encourages inventive choreography, bold characterization, and creative doubling to produce a fresh take on a well-beloved story.

Silent Sky

By Lauren Gunderson

Henrietta Leavitt: Madysen Schmidt

Margaret Leavitt: Angie Geiger

Peter Shaw: John Gonzalez

Williamina Fleming: Christine Conway

Anne Cannon: Anne Caylor 


Performances: July 11 - 21, 2024


Silent Sky tells the true story of Henrietta Leavitt, the astronomer ahead of her time. It is 1900, and Henrietta has the opportunity to work at Harvard University as a human computer, one of Dr. Edward Pickering's "harem," mapping the stars but receiving no scientific credit. When Henrietta arrives, she is eager to use Harvard's telescope - the Great Refractor - but is told that she will not be able to do any sort of astronomical discovery as she will only log the stars photographed by the men of the department. However, Henrietta will not be dissuaded, and begins the process of recording the changes in Cepheid stars - a scientific discovery that has a profound and lasting impact on the field of astronomy. During her inquiry, Henrietta's relationships strain under her obsessive work ethic; her sister, Margaret, her love interest Peter Shaw, and her colleagues Annie Cannon and Williamina Fleming, all find themselves pushed aside in favor of a great cosmic mystery. Silent Sky is the poignant tale of a woman's dedication to the stars, and the human touch that makes life under the vast sky beautiful and timeless.

Artifice

By Anne Flanagan



Maggie LaRue: Allie Klinker
Richard: Brian Zimmerman
Graciela: Lisa Witmer 
Trent Matlock: Bob Pekol
Judith Fontaine: Richelle Hudson
Mick Fitzgerald: Steve Oswald
Emma: Kylie Boesch
Payne Showers: Adam Baurain


Performances: August 1 - 10


Struggling artist Payne Showers finally gets his Big Break. He dies. Fortunately, Payne's death greatly inflates the value of his work. Unfortunately, his estranged wife, Maggie must sell it all to avoid bankruptcy. Just days before the auction, Maggie and her high-strung gallery manager, Richard, has a private showing. The guests of honor are influential newspaper maven Judith Fontaine; the fabulously rich real estate mogul Mick Fitzgerald; Trent, a gorgeous but dim-witted soap opera actor; Graciela, a streetwise cocktail waitress; and Emma, a humorless art critic. To Maggie's delight, Mick Fitzgerald buys dozens of paintings. Not only will the deal rescue her financially, but Judith Fontaine is covering the story. The resulting publicity will put Maggie's gallery on the map! At this point, the only thing that could go wrong would be if Payne Showers were to walk through the door. Then Payne Showers walks through the door. Artifice is a farcical take on celebrity and success and an affectionate tribute to loyalty and love.
