lysistrata
June 25 - August 18
by Aristophanes
Directed by Danielle Drakes
On a mission to end the Peloponnesian
War, Lysistrata bands together the
women of Greece to withhold sex until
the men declare peace. As the women
tantalize and tease their way to peace,
a timeless story emerges of sexual
politics, political power struggles, and
the battle between the sexes. Funny,
poignant, and just a little dirty,
Lysistrata is a comic romp of more than
adequate proportions.

Antony + Cleopatra
July 7 - August 20
by William Shakespeare
Directed by Charlene V. Smith
Reason and judgement prove no match for
the tsunami of passion engulfing Mark
Antony, one of the three joint rulers of
the Roman Republic, and Cleopatra, the
powerful Queen of Egypt. Surrendering
everything to their desires, they open
the floodgates to a civil conflict that will
shake the very foundations of their
world. Shakespeare’s dark and intimate
portrait of this storied affair features
some of the most transcendent poetry on
love and loss in the cannon.

Amphitryon
July 14 - August 19
Adapted by Molière
Translated by A.R. Waller
Directed by Carol Ann Tan
I laughed so hard, I fell over backward.
- Voltaire
Jupiter, the king of the gods, is obsessed
with a mortal woman, Alcmena. To woo
her, he assumes the bodily form of her
husband Amphitryon. When the real
Amphitryon returns home victorious from
the Theban War, he finds his
conquering hero welcome has been
usurped by another…him. The blend of
high comedy and slapstick that follows
unlocks a Pandora’s box of ideas about
love, marriage, and power.

Comedy of errors
July 21- August 21
by William Shakespeare
Directed by Hannah Cordes
Two sets of twins, each with the
same name—what could go wrong?
Everything, apparently. Leave logic
behind and delight in the mayhem
of Shakespeare’s slapstick comedy.
Chaos and confusion reign when two
sets of identical twins, separated at
birth, end up in the same town on the
same day. The blunders double, triple,
and quadruple until everyone is pretty
sure that everyone else is completely
insane.

eurydice
July 28 - August 19
by Sarah Ruhl
Directed by Dawn McAndrews
On her wedding day, Eurydice falls
victim to a tragic accident that sends her
hurtling into the Underworld, erasing
her memory and reuniting her with her
long-dead father. When Orpheus arrives
to save her, Eurydice is torn between her
desire to return to the real world and
the relationship she rediscovers with her
father in the afterlife. Brimming with
lyrical beauty, and Ruhl’s trademark wit,
Eurydice is a visceral and surreal
meditation on love worth grieving for.

by Sarah Bierstock
Directed by Lindsey Higgins
A Workshop Production
Pandora is Seriously Curious about all
things Global Warming. When the kids
at school call her Teacher’s Pet one too
many times, she decides to try out life at
Dad’s house, and enrolls in the gifted and
talented school, Smarty Pants
Elementary. She just has this one,
Exceptionally Important Scientific
Experiment she must complete before
leaving. It involves a large suitcase she
lugs around with her. What could be
inside there?? And why is she dragging it
to the river?
