Written in 1945 by British playwright J. B. Priestly, AN INSPECTOR CALLS is part mystery, part morality tale. While the up-and-coming Birling family celebrates their daughter's engagement to a young man from a prominent family, a mysterious inspector arrives declaring that a young woman has just died in the town infirmary. At first, the family cannot understand why the inspector has interrupted their festivities with this grim announcement. But as the inspector reveals over the course of the play, each member of the family can be implicated in the woman’s death.
As evidenced by major London revivals in 1992 and 2009, the questions that drive this play remain chillingly pertinent for modern audiences.
Tuesday – Friday, October 5-8, 7:30pm, Saturday, October 9, 2:00pm and 7:30pm.

Perhaps the most famous love story in all of literature, this tragic tale of the star-crossed relationship between two young scions of the Montagues and Capulets—aristocratic Italian families who happen to be in nasty feud at a most unfortunate time—has been fast-forwarded to a future, apocalyptic world rife with gang warfare.

The citizens of Persia await news of King Xerxes, who has led the Persian army into an ill-advised war. When at last the herald arrives, the news is not good. As the community grapples with the concept of defeat, their queen must prepare to welcome home her son, the disgraced king. Playwright/actor Ellen McLaughlin has adapted this oldest surviving Greek tragedy into a moving, poetic, and timely consideration of war, pride, and-ultimately-loss.

Subtitled "a tragicomedy in two acts," this play is sure to get your existential juices flowing. In the best tradition of the Theatre of the Absurd, its two main characters wait...and wait...and wait for the mysterious title character. Who is he, and will he ever show up? Thanks to its cryptically bare structure, the play's meaning is wide open to interpretation. Is it Biblical? Freudian? Political? Perhaps only Godot knows for sure.

A New Version of Georges Feydeau's Farce
by David Ives

Rebecca Klein, Stage Manager
One pair of suspenders, a suspicious wife, a jealous Spaniard, a couple of conniving servants, and a master of the house who happens to resemble the bellboy at a local hotel add up to mayhem and misunderstanding in this hilarious new adaptation of Feydeau's classic French farce. Set in fin-de-siècle Paris, the play combines breathless action and brilliant wit as the characters track that most elusive of prey-true love.
