Mid-Life! is a hilarious romp with an honest humor about the trials and tribulations of the unavoidable aging process. This all-new musical revue has been playing to SRO crowds throughout the nation. Welcome to Mid-Life! |

OKLAHOMA! October 1st – Nov. 20th Rodgers & Hammerstein's first collaboration remains their most innovative, having set the standards and established the rules of musical theatre still being followed today. Set in a Western Indian territory just after the turn of the century, the high-spirited rivalry between the local farmers and cowboys provides the colorful background against which Curly, a handsome cowboy, and Laurey, a winsome farm girl, play out their love story. Although the road to true love never runs smooth, with these two headstrong romantics holding the reins, love's journey is as bumpy as a surrey ride down a country road. That they will succeed in making a new life together we have no doubt, and that this new life will begin in a brand-new state provides the ultimate climax to the triumphant Oklahoma! |

HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS WITHOUT REALLY TRYING January 7th – February 27th Power, sex, ambition, greed... it's just another day at the office. In the grand tradition of The Producers and A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum comes one of the most delightfully irreverent musicals of all time. A satire of big business and all it holds sacred, How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying follows the rise of J. Pierrepont Finch, who uses a little handbook to climb the corporate ladder from lowly window washer to high-powered executive, tackling such familiar but potent dangers as the aggressively compliant company man, the boss' whiny, nepotistic nephew, the office party, backstabbing co-workers, caffeine addiction and, of course, true love. With music by the composer of Guys and Dolls comes a score filled with classics I Believe in You, Been a Long Day, Rosemary, The Company Way and the rousing show stopper Brotherhood of Man. |
