Of Mice and Men, a John Steinbeck Drama (January 8-31, 2010)
Two drifters, George and Lennie, with delusions of living off the "fat of the land," have just arrived at a ranch to work for enough money to buy their own place. Lennie is a man-child, a little boy in the body of a dangerously powerful man. It's Lennie's obsessions with things soft and cuddly, that have made George cautious about who this gentle giant associates with. When a woman is found dead in the barn, it is obvious that Lennie--albeit accidentally--killed her. Realizing they can't run away, George is faced with a moral question: how should he deal with Lennie before the ranchers find him to take matters into their own hands. A tremendously moving study of the character of two roving farmhands.

After consulting a psychiatrist, Elaine commits herself to a sanitarium for treatment. But from there the plot moves quickly and grippingly as those involved; Elaine's old friend Blanche, the inquisitive and rather sinister man who lives next door and the nosy German maid all contribute to the deepening suspense as it draws towards its riveting climax.

Crimes of the Heart , A Beth Henley Comedy/Drama (March 26-April 19, 2009)
The scene is Hazlehurst, Mississippi where the three Magrath sisters have gathered to await news of the family patriarch, their grandfather, who is living out his last hours in the local hospital. Lenny, the oldest, is unmarried at 30 and facing diminishing marital prospects; Meg, who quickly outgrew Hazlehurst is back after a failed singing career on the West Coast and Babe, the youngest, is out on bail after having shot her husband in the stomach. The play is the story of how its young characters escape the past to seize the future--but the telling is so true and touching and consistently hilarious that it will linger in the mind long after the curtain has descended.
"It has heart, wit and a surprisingly zany passion that must carry all before it" NY Post.
Happy Birthday , A Marc Camoletti Comedy (May 28-June 21, 2009)

By chance, a maid engaged for the evening arrives and her name is also Brigit. Frantic complications in which identities, plots and counter plots and bedrooms are exchanged with ever increasing confusion transpire until an unexpected ending makes everyone happy including the maid who has acquired a mink coat and lots of money! A long running success in London.
