Season
Heroes
6/15/2010 - 7/4/2010Passing time on the terrace of a veteran’s hospital, three friends plot their great escape and goad one another on to new adventures. Their wits may not be fully intact, their bodies not fully cooperating, but even in their autumn years they retain a zeal for life and a never-say-die spirit that just may get them past the front gates - and beyond. Olivier Award winner for Best New Comedy
Over the Tavern
7/7/2010 - 7/25/2010Raising four teenagers over a tavern in the 1950s is a challenge. Even the Cleavers would be at loss for advice when, just before confirmation, the wise-cracking Rudy starts to question the church and ruler-cracking Sister Clarissa. Filled with warm humor, nostalgia and coming-of-age mischief.
A Little Night Music
7/28/2010 - 8/15/2010Broadway’s sophisticated, stylish and disarmingly funny comedy about second chances is a Valentine for Door County audiences. In turn-of-the century Sweden, six people, whose love-lives have gone off track, are given a taste of love’s endless possibilities. This witty and elegant musical is a celebration of romance and features one of Sondheim’s most popular hits, “Send in the Clowns.”
Comic Potential
8/18/2010 - 9/5/2010In the not-too-distant future, comic lessons between scriptwriter Adam and TV actoid Jacie turn hilarious - and romantic. Cast in “Hospital Hearts,” JCF 31333 is one of many programmable acting androids. She faces being scrapped because of a glitch in her system – a glitch for comedy, the “pie-in-your-face” kind. Adam and Jacie run away, embarking on a real life adventure that takes on epic soap opera proportions.
Panic
9/8/2010 - 10/17/2010Film director Henry Lockwood, known as “the Sultan of Suspense,” finds himself in Paris living a nightmare he usually captures on film. The City of Lights turns dark and deadly when Henry is accused of a sinister crime. In this stylish thriller he becomes deeply embroiled in blackmail, betrayal and murder. Will Henry’s career and marriage make the final cut or end up in a heap on the editing floor.
