Taking place in the South, we follow the story of a family's relationship and how they are dealing with their sister shooting her husband. With the strong female cast we can't help but to feel their pain through their emotions, relationship with each other, and how they deal with life.  By the time the play transferred to Broadway in November 1981, Crimes of the Heart had received the prestigious Pulitzer Prize. Beth Henley was the first woman to win the Pulitzer for Drama in twenty-three years, and her play was the first ever to win before opening on Broadway. Tickets: $16 Adults, $14 Seniors, $8 Students.

Girlhood, marriage, childbirth, fire, illness and death are illuminated through drama, music and dance.  (One of the authors is Molly Newman who is a television writer and producer most known for work on shows such as The Larry Sanders Show, Northern Exposure and Brothers & Sisters. She was nominated for Broadway's 1985 Tony Award as Best Book (Musical) with collaborator Barbara Damashek for "Quilters.") Tickets: $16 Adults, $14 Seniors, $8 Students.

Hay Fever
February 20-23, 2008 at 8:00 p.m., February 24, 2007 at 2:00 p.m. Hay Fever is set in the hall of the Bliss family home. The eccentric Blisses—Judith, a recently retired stage actress, David, a self-absorbed novelist, and their two equally unconventional children. All four members of the Bliss family have independently invited a guest for the weekend at their house near Maidenhead. The guests arrive only to find themselves alternately humiliated and embarrassed by their self-obsessed and self-dramatizing hosts. This comical masterpiece is filled with wit! Tickets: $16 Adults, $14 Seniors, $8 Students.
