THE WEDDING SINGER- October 14-16, 21-23, 2022 (A Mainstage Production)
Music by Matthew Sklar, book by Chad Beguelin and Tim Herlihy, lyrics by Chad Beguelin. Based on the New Line Cinema film written by Tim Herlihy. Presented by special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).

The Wedding Singer takes us back to a time when hair was big, greed was good, collars were up and a wedding singer might just be the coolest guy in the room. Based on the hit Adam Sandler movie, The Wedding Singer's sparkling new score does for the '80s what Hairspray did for the '60s. Just say yes to the most romantic musical in twenty years.

It's 1985, and rock star wannabe, Robbie Hart, is New Jersey's favorite wedding singer. He's the life of the party until his own fiancée leaves him at the altar. Shot through the heart, Robbie makes every wedding as disastrous as his own. Enter Julia, a winsome waitress who wins his affection. As luck would have it, Julia is about to be married to a Wall Street shark, and, unless Robbie can pull off the performance of a decade, the girl of his dreams will be gone forever.

Beauty and the Beast, Jr.- March 23-26, 2023 (A Youth Theatre Production)
BEAUTY Music by Alan Menken, lyrics by Howard Ashman and Tim Rice, book by Linda Woolverton. Presented by special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).

Based on the original Broadway production that ran for over 13 years and was nominated for 9 Tony Awards, and the Academy Award-winning motion picture, Disney’s Beauty and the Beast JR. is a fantastic adaptation of the story of transformation and tolerance. The classic story tells of Belle, a young woman in a provincial town, and the Beast, who is really a young prince trapped under the spell of an enchantress. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved, the curse will end and he will be transformed to his former self. But time is running out. If the Beast does not learn his lesson soon, he and his household will be doomed for all eternity. This “tale as old as time” is sure to delight audiences of all ages.

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST IS SOLD OUT.
A LIVE STREAM OPTION IS AVAILABLE FOR FRIDAY, MARCH 24 AT 7:30PM.

                                      
​Directed by Kayleigh Stultz. 

Rock of Ages- May 12-13, 18-21, 2023 (A Mainstage Production)
Book by Chris D’Arienzo, arrangements and orchestration by Ethan Popp. Presented by special arrangement with Concord Theatricals.

It’s the tail end of the big, bad 1980s in Hollywood, and the party has been raging hard. Aqua Net, Lycra, lace, and liquor flow freely at one of the Sunset Strips’ last legendary venues. Aspiring rock star (and resident toilet cleaner) Drew longs to take the stage as the next big thing (and longs for small-town girl Sherri, fresh off the bus from Kansas with stars in her eyes). But the rock 'n' roll fairy tale is about to end when German developers sweep into town with plans to turn the fabled Strip into just another capitalist strip mall. Can Drew, Sherri and the gang save the strip – and themselves – before it's too late? Only the music of hit bands Styx, Journey, Bon Jovi, Whitesnake and more hold the answer.                           

Adult themes and language. Not recommended for children under 17.
Fri & Sat May 12, 13 at 7:30pm, Thurs, Fri & Sat May 18, 19, 20 at 7:30pm, Sun matinee May 21 at 2pm (No show Mother’s Day Sun May 14) 
Reserved seating. Adults $22, Seniors (62 and up) $18, Students (with college ID or younger) $18
​Directed by Nik Nemec. Tickets go on sale March 31, 2023.
