COMING ON THE MAINSTAGE....

  • Book & Lyrics by Steven Sater / Music by Duncan Sheik
  • Based on the play by Frank Wedekind
  • Directed by Bill Wilson
  • Choreography by Angelica Vessella
  • Music Direction by Stephen DeCesare

The winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical, told by Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater through what Entertainment Weekly called, "the most gorgeous Broadway score this decade," Spring Awakening explores the journey from adolescence to adulthood with a poignancy and passion that is illuminating and unforgettable. The landmark musical is an electrifying fusion of morality, sexuality and rock and roll that is exhilarating audiences across the nation like no other musical in years.

Content Warning: SPRING AWAKENING contains sexual situations, explicit language, and scenes depicting violence and suicide.



In the overwhelming quiet of the woods, six runaways from city life embark on a silent retreat. As these strangers confront internal demons both profound and absurd, their vows of silence collide with the achingly human need to connect. Filled with awkward humor, this strange and compassionate new play asks how we address life’s biggest questions when words fail us.

Content Warning: Contains sexual situations, use of medical marijuana, and discussion of suicide, illness, and death.



  • Songs by the Go-Go’s
  • Based on the ‘The Arcadia’ by Sir Philip Sidney
  • Conceived and Original Book by Jeff Whitty / Adapted by James Mamgruder
  • Directed by Bill Wilson
  • Choreography by Angelica Vessella
  • Music Direction by Stephen DeCesare
Head Over Heels is the bold new musical comedy from the visionaries that rocked Broadway with Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Avenue Q, and Spring Awakening. This laugh-out-loud love story is set to the music of the iconic 1980’s all-female rock band The Go-Go’s, including the hit songs, “We Got the Beat,” “Our Lips Are Sealed,” “Vacation,” Belinda Carlisle’s “Heaven is a Place on Earth” and “Mad About You.” A hilarious, exuberant celebration of love, HEAD OVER HEELS follows the escapades of a royal family on an outrageous journey to save their beloved kingdom from extinction—only to discover the key to their realm’s survival lies within each of their own hearts.


ON THE GROWING STAGE...

The Wolves by Sarah DeLappe

  • Directed by Mackenzie Richard
  • December 9th-10th at 7:30pm
  • December 11th at 1:00pm

Left quad. Right quad. Lunge. A girls indoor soccer team warms up. From the safety of their suburban stretch circle, the team navigates big questions and wages tiny battles with all the vim and vigor of a pack of adolescent warriors. A portrait of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for nine American girls who just want to score some goals.


Nothing is the End of the World (except for the end of the world)

by Bekah Brunstetter

  • Directed by Eliza Vecchiarelli
  • April 28th & 29th at 7:30pm
  • April 30th at 1:00pm

In the near-distant future, an NYC charter school becomes the first to welcome artificially intelligent students. However, new AI students Olive and Godfrey receive a chilly welcome from the already self-conscious and stressed-out members of the Junior class. When a reality show swoops in to capture this social experiment on camera, the priorities and moralities of the student body are turned inside-out. At turns both droll and touching, this dark new play questions how we reconcile the thin line between our ever-improving technologies and what it means to be human.
