You’ve heard of the Four Freshmen and the Lettermen — but wait until you hear the Plaids!  The New York musical comedy hit Forever Plaid is the deliciously funny and charming story of "The Plaids," a classic 1950s all-male singing group, who were killed in a car crash on their way to their first big gig! Audiences will be rolling in the aisles and tapping their toes as "The Plaids" are miraculously revived to perform the concert that never was in this hilariously nostalgic musical! Performing precision harmonies and executing their delightfully outlandish choreography with over-zealous precision, "The Plaids" perform some of the 1950s' greatest hits: "Catch a Falling Star," "Three Coins in the Fountain," "Love Is a Many-Splendored Thing," “Day-O,” and "Magic Moments." With brilliant harmonies, outlandish choreography, and witty humor Forever Plaid will put a smile on everyone’s face.

Wilkommen to CABARET, the dazzling musical work that made Kander and Ebb famous.  Set in 1929 Berlin on the eve of the Nazi takeover, the show depicts the interlocking stories of a cabaret singer, a writer from America, and the denizens of Berlin, all caught up in the swirling maelstrom of a changing society.  Overseeing the action is the Emcee, who presides as master of ceremonies at the Kit Kat Klub and serves as a general commentator.  The sparkling score, the powerful script, and the dazzling cabaret scenes interspersed with a moving tale of real people about to be caught in the trap of the horror to come makes this a show that you will never forget.

East versus West makes for a dramatic, richly textured and ultimately uplifting tale of enormous fascination.  It is 1862 in Siam when an English widow, Anna Leonowens, and her young son arrive at the Royal Palace in Bangkok, having been summoned by the King to serve as tutor to his many children and wives.  The King is largely considered to be a barbarian by those in the West and he seeks Anna's assistance in changing his image, if not his ways.  With both keeping a firm grip on their respective traditions and values, Anna and the King grow to understand and, eventually, respect one another, in a truly unique love story.  The score is full of immortal songs like "Getting To Know You," "I Have Dreamed," "Shall We Dance?" and "Hello, Young Lovers."

Mel Brooks is surely the zaniest comic genius ever, and in the musical version of his hit movie “The Producers”, we see just how zany he really is. Who would have thought that a musical with the song “Spring Time for Hitler” would prove to be an all time Broadway classic! See the Mel Brooks musical that’s won more awards than any show in history, including 12 Tony® Awards.  The storyline is a comedy classic: a crooked producer and his accountant cook up a scheme to present a massive trainwreck of a theatrical fiasco – and pocket their investors’ money before the curtain falls.  A surefire sellout - so get your tickets early!

Winner of the Tony Award, the Drama Desk Award and the Outer Critics Circle Award as Best Broadway Play.  M. Butterfly is brilliant theatrical tour de force which reflects some of the action of the Puccini’s opera Madame Butterfly, yet creates a world all its own.  Drawn from real life events, involving the strange tale of a French diplomat who carried on a twenty year relationship with a Chinese opera star without (he contended) being aware that his "perfect woman" was really a man, the play becomes a powerful metaphor for the exploration of deeper themes; the perception of Eastern culture by the West, and the persistent romanticism which clouds and inhibits that perception.  Who is victim and who the oppressor?  A very special dramatic presentation.  Nudity, mature themes.

 In Crossing Delancy we meet Izzy, the beloved granddaughter of a Russian Jewish immigrant. Izzy's life moves between her "Bubbie" and her books; she loves them both.  When her grandmother decides to employ some old world ways of matchmaking on Izzy's behalf, Izzy will have no part of it.  She claims to be emotionally and psychologically different and sets out to prove it. After all, she is a modern American girl and she just happens to have caught the eye of the very attractive and well known American novelist, Tyler Moss. Meanwhile, Matchmaker Hannah knows that the eyes of Sam the pickle-man have been following Izzy for some time and presents himself dressed for success (well, at least dressed for something).  While Sam is not too sure, he does know a good thing when he sees it; Tyler knows a good thing when it's packaged nicely; Hannah knows that for everyone there is a match; and Bubbie knows her granddaughter, Izzy, better than Izzy knows herself.  What's the girl to do?
