*LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS*  Book and Lyrics by Howard Ashman, Music by Alan
Menken, Directed by Michael Mensching, Musical Direction by Joanne Mensching



What do you feed a plant that promises to make all your dreams come true?  Mix
up a big batch of rock and roll, black comedy and Motown.  Add some horror,
doo-wop and crazy characters.  Finish the zany concoction with infectious
songs and gallons of blood.  What could possibly go wrong?

Performances:  October 9-11, 6-18 and 23-25, 2015.



*SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS* – THE ANNUAL PANTO        Written by Judy
Staber and the Pantoloons,             Directed by Tom Detwiler



The Loons are still together, bringing their zany touches to the classic
fairytale.



Performances:  November 27-29, December 4-6 and 11-13, 2015



*THE WEIR*       Written by Conor McPherson, Directed by Aaron Holbritter



We are all haunted by different ghosts – some real, some imagined.  At the
local pub, The Weir, jovial banter and friendly gossip take a spellbinding
turn to the supernatural world of spirits, fairies and Irish Gentle Folk,
as four longtime mates vie for the attention of the village’s newest
resident.



Performances:  January 22-24, 29-31 and February 5-7, 2016



*BOEING, BOEING  *Written by Marc Camoletti, Translated by Beverley Cross
and Francis Evans, Directed by Cathy Lee-Visscher



Fasten your seatbelts!  It’s going to be a farcical flight!  A first-class
Romeo does his frantic best to avert a mid-air collision when his three
international stewardess fiancées have a simultaneous layover in his Paris
flat.  Will it be coffee, tea or me, Me or ME?  Winner of both the 2008
Tony Award for Best Revival of a Play and the 2008 Drama Desk Award for
Outstanding Revival of a Play.



Performances:  March 18-20, 25-26* and April 1-3, 2016.  PLEASE NOTE THERE
WILL BE NO PERFORMANCE ON EASTER SUNDAY, MARCH 27.



*THE IMAGINARY INVALID  *Written by Moliere, a new translation written and
directed by Barbara Leavell Smith



This classic tale of the ultimate hypochondriac administers a mirthful
injection straight to the bone, when an endless flood of doctors and
pharmacist’s bills sets off chaos and mayhem as an imaginary invalid tries
to cure all his aches, pains and woes with hilarious results!



Performances:  May 20-22, 27-29 and June 3-5, 2016
