Season

The outrageously prodigious comic and musical soul of 1930s Harlem lives on in this rollicking, swinging, finger-snapping revue that is still considered one of Broadway’s best. The one and only Thomas “Fats” Waller rose to international fame during the Golden Age of the Cotton Club and that jumpin’ new beat, Swing. Although not quite a biography, Ain't Misbehavin’ evokes the delightful humor and infectious energy of this American superstar.

The Charles Dickens classic tale of a waif in 19th century England comes alive brilliantly in this wondrous musical. Fleeing a life of workhouse servitude, Oliver arrives in London to seek his fortune, discovers the Crime School for Boys and a gallery of unforgettable low-lifes. Showstoppers include As Long As He Needs Me, Consider Yourself, and Where Is Love.

Always…Patsy Cline is more than a tribute to the legendary country singer who died tragically at age 30 in a plane crash in 1963. The show is based on a true story about Cline’s friendship with a fan from Houston named Louise Seger, who befriended the star in a Texas honky-tonk in l961, and continued a correspondence with Cline until her death. Unforgettable hits such as Crazy, I Fall to Pieces, Sweet Dreams and Waking After Midnight.

A collection of beautifully written songs by Stephen Schwartz, Godspell's message of love and happiness denies any real sectarian boundaries that might be expected in a play about Christ and His teachings. During its incredibly successful Broadway run, it was applauded by all denominations–not just Christians–for it brings life and beauty to some powerful ideas: Live, don't merely survive. Love yourself and love your neighbors, friends and enemies alike. And be joyful–above all things, be joyful!
