THE GRAPES OF WRATH APRIL 5-28, 2013 “They ain’t gonna wipe us out. We’re the people. We go on.” Having survived the drought of the 1930s Dust Bowl only to see their home repossessed by the bank, the Joad family embarks on a harrowing trek from Oklahoma to California, intending to begin anew as migrant farm workers. Their arrival in this “promised land,” however, brings its own test of the human spirit. Frank Galati’s groundbreaking adaptation of Steinbeck’s epic novel won two Tony Awards on Broadway. A plea for social justice and compassion, The Grapes of Wrath provides the perfect canvas for a vast ensemble cast and is an all too timely examination of a nation in search of itself.

THE MYSTERY OF IRMA VEP SEPTEMBER 28 - OCTOBER 21, 2012 A penny dreadful tale. Who is Irma Vep? That's the mystery at the heart of this outrageously funny tour de force. On a "dark and stormy night," Lady Enid arrives at an estate with her new husband, who is under the spell of his deceased first wife and haunted by something that’s prowling the grounds. Strange things begin to happen around her and she soon discovers the mystery of Irma Vep, whose portrait hangs over the fireplace. This hilarious comedy satirizes everything from Hitchcock’s Rebecca and Victorian Melodrama to The Mummy's Curse. SHOW CONTAINS SMOKE, HAZE, AND STROBE LIGHTING EFFECTS.
