Is there anything more exciting, frightening and utterly
transformational than impending parenthood? Baby, a smart,
energetic musical with loads of charm and a score of show-stopping
numbers, tells the story of three couples spanning three generations
as they deal with the painful, rewarding and agonizingly funny
consequences of this universal experience. It's the perfect musical for
anyone who's ever had a baby... or anyone who's ever been one!

Doubt
-
By John Patrick Shanley
Directed by Chase Newhart
February 20 - March 7, 2009
It is 1964, shortly after the shock to the country of the Kennedy
assassination. Principal Sister Aloysius is concerned about the
potentially inappropriate actions of Father Flynn with a middle school
black student, and decides to enlist the assistance of a younger
teacher, Sister James, to look out for anything suspicious. John
Patrick Shanley, who won the 2005 Pulitzer Prize and Tony for this
play, challenges his audience to question everything, and raises more
issues than he answers: Is Father Flynn innocent or guilty? What is
the nature of doubt or of certainty? And are new, modern ways of
looking at religion always better, or is there something to be said
for tradition?

The Constant Wife
-
By W. Somerset Maugham
Directed by Rick Delaney
April 24 - May 9, 2009
W. Somerset Maugham's delightfully witty comedy of manners and
mistresses of the very rich in 1920's London, tells the tale of a
"modern" marriage. All of Constance Middleton's friends can't wait to
tell her of her husband's affair with her best friend -- but clever
Constance has a few ideas of her own about marriage, infidelity and
female independence! When an old admirer shows up at her door, what's
sauce for the gander may just turn out to be sauce for the goose.
