Anton Chekhov's   THE SEAGULL

Written by Anton Chekhov
In a new version by Christopher Hampton
Directed by Janis Stevens

THE SEAGULL by Anton Chekhov made its premiere at the famed Moscow Art Theatre on December 17, 1898 and created a “revolution” in modern theatre, perhaps because, as Stella Adler explains, “he (Chekhov) felt no obligation to explain life, but to put it down as he saw it truthfully”.  Chekhov hoped to evoke the mood of life, rather like the Impressionists sought to offer the feeling of a place.  Our production seeks to offer an impressionistic feel of turn-of-the-century Russia and the comedic poignancy of the characters brought to life in this extraordinary play.



Performances:

Nov. 17 - Dec. 3, 2017   Thursday/ Friday/ Saturday/ Sunday except Thanksgiving

LEND ME A TENOR

Written by Ken Ludwig
Directed by Nancy Silva

In September 1934 The great tenor Tito Morelli is supposed to appear at the Clveland Opera.  Through a hilarious series of mishaps, he passes out, and the manager has to go on and fool the audience that he is Tito Morelli.  But wait, the real Tito wakes up, and gets into costume to perform.  Now there are two tenors running around.  What happens now? This madcap, screwball comedy is guaranteed to leave audiences teary-eyed with laughter.

"A furiously paced comedy with more than a touch of the Marx brothers"

"The most inventive original farce in a long time"

"Uproarious! Hysterical!"

Performances:  Feb. 23 - Mar. 4, 2018

E.B. White's beloved children's tale is brought to life in this 50 minute children's show which finds the young farm pig Wilbur attempting to avoid a dire fate. Of all the barnyard creatures, Wilbur's staunchest ally is Charlotte, a thoughtful spider who devises an intriguing plan to keep the gentle little swine out of the slaughterhouse. Although Charlotte's efforts, which involve words written in her delicate web, seem far-fetched, they may just work. Other characters include a gluttonous rat, some wacky geese, a cantankerous sheep, Homer, Fern, the farmhand and more!



Touring to Fair Oaks Theatre Festival on Saturdays in July 2017.
