Into the Woods by James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim

In this award-winning musical, a Baker and his wife wish to have a child, Cinderella wishes to attend the King’s Festival, and Jack wishes his cow would give milk.  When the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a Witch’s curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse.  Everyone’s wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later with disastrous results.

Everybody by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins

This 2018 Pulitzer Prize Finalist is a comedic and contemporary adaptation of the 15thcentury morality play, Everyman. Jacobs-Jenkins’ play asks an average person to account for their deeds on a journey to end all journeys. When Death comes calling . . . will we finally understand the meaning of life? 

Feathers and Teeth by Charsie Castro Smith

In this comedy-horror play from the co-writer of Disney's "Encanto," thirteen-year-old Chris deals with her mom's recent death, her dad's new (evil?) fiancé's arrival, and roadkill that just won't die. 

Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare

This timeless tale of young love against unfathomable odds-ancient war between their families-touches the heart just as deeply as when it appeared four hundred and twenty-seven years ago. It still has the power to move us and, at least for 'two hours traffic,' gives us hope against hope that one day love might finally triumph in the end.
