Quilters Celebrate Alexandria’s sesquicentennial with a musical journey to the past. Blending original music with traditional hymns and folk songs, “Quilters” presents a series of vignettes that chronicle the lives, dreams, and struggles of America’s pioneer women. The Ice Fishing Play On the middle of a frozen lake, a chilly Minnesotan baits his hook to catch The Big One. Suddenly his ice hut is overrun by family, friends. . .and apparitions in search of a beer? As camaraderie melts back into solitude, the lonely fisherman is brought cheek-to-gill with destiny. Hay Fever Unbeknownst to the others, each member of the eccentric Bliss family has invited a romantic interest for the weekend. With too little space and too many egos, the weekend becomes a wild and witty comedy of bad manners where passions collide and party games go horribly awry. The Middle Ages Barney is the family rebel determined to escape his stodgy upbringing but is in love with Eleanor, the wholesome and upright girl next door. Set in the trophy room of a men’s club, the play follows their lives from youth to middle age through a series of club events: a debutante dance, a Christmas party, Eleanor’s wedding to Barney’s more respectable brother, and finally the funeral of Barney’s father. A warm and humorous portrait of American life and love from the 1950s through the 1970s. My Emperors New Clothes A colorful, brightly comic and truly delightful treat for young audiences, written by one of our theatre's most accomplished playwrights. Reflecting the antic humor which distinguishes his hit comedies THE NERD and THE FOREIGNER, the author has transformed the famous original children's story into a fresh and lively theatre piece filled with funny lines, hummable songs and fast-paced action. |
