The Complete Works Of William Shakespeare (abridged)

Not a Shakespeare fan? Not to worry, you will be after seeing this show! The cast consists of three men. They will portray a multitude of characters. This fast paced, physical condensation of Shakespeare’s work hits the high notes with comedy, costumes, sock puppets, daggers, and rap. It is reminiscent of Saturday Night Live and Fractured Fairy Tales with a cooking show thrown in. To quote the “Los Angeles Herald”, “Shakespeare as written by Reader’s Digest, acted by Monty Python, and performed at the speed of the minute waltz.”  This hilarious comedy is directed by Nancy Peska with Suzanne Cline as assistant director. Susan Beckett is the stage manager, Dianne Wieferich the producer, Daisy Beckett with sound, and Julie Frick with lighting.

Directed by Nancy Peska

After leaving the Army after W.W.II, Bob Wallace and Phil Davis team up to become a top song-and-dance act. Davis plays matchmaker and introduces Wallace to a pair of beautiful sisters (Betty and Judy) who also have a song-and-dance act. When Betty and Judy travel to a Vermont lodge to perform a Christmas show, Wallace and Davis follow, only to find their former commander, General Waverly, is the lodge owner. A series of romantic mix-ups ensue as the performers try to help the General.

Godspell

A modern-day version of the gospels, opening with John the Baptist calling a disparate group of young New Yorkers from their workaday lives to follow and learn from Jesus. They form a roving acting troupe that enacts the parables through song and dance, comedy, and mime. Jesus' ministry ends with a last supper, his Crucifixion in a junkyard, and, the following morning, his body being carried aloft by his apostles back into the world of the living on the streets of New York

Directed by Roger Allman.
