Performance and Audition Schedule
2009 - 2010 Season
Director's Choice...Guys and Dolls
Music and Lyrics by Frank Loesser.
Set in Damon Runyon's mythical New York City - considered by many to be the perfect musical comedy - soars with the spirit of Broadway as it introduces us to a cast of vivid characters who have become legends in the canon: Sarah Brown, the upright but uptight "mission doll," out to reform the evildoers of Time Square; Sky Masterson, the high-rolling gambler who woos her on a bet; Adelaide, the chronically ill nightclub performer whose condition is brought on by the fact she's been engaged to the same man for 14 years; and Nathan Detroit, her devoted fiancé, desperate as always to find a spot for his infamous floating crap game

Witness for the Prosecution
A drama by Agatha Christie
A young married man spends several evenings with a rich older woman. When she is found murdered, the naive young man is the chief suspect. The testimony of his wife is expected to result in an acquittal, but she is a shrew who damages his case and all but hangs him before a vindictive mystery woman appears with letters against the wife. She discredited and perjured herself because she felt that direct testimony on her husband's behalf would not have been sufficient to free him "Packs plenty of surprise in its cargo of suspense" - Daily Mirror. Winner of the New York Critics Circle Award and the Tony Award as the best foreign play of the year.
