Lie, Cheat & Genuflect

 

By Billy Van Zandt and Jane Milmore

A Laugh-Packed Comedy-Farce

November 6, 7, 13, 14, 20 & 21

When the Buckle brothers, Billy and Tom, spend all the money they have
playing the horses they borrow money from a loan shark, Pizza Face Petrillo
and now he wants his money-or else! When the brothers' rich grandfather
passes away they devise a scheme to somehow get some money they know they
won't inherit. Add a stuffy lawyer, a hard drinking, man-hungry housekeeper
and a trio of beautiful women and you have a laugh-packed farce of twists,
turns and prat-falls. Fast paced, funny with plenty of mistaken identities
and big laughs!

 

 

It's A Wonderful Life (A Live Radio Play)

 

By Joe Landry. 

Based on the film by Frank Capra.

A Special One-Weekend Holiday Radio Drama December 18 & 19

This beloved American holiday classic comes to captivating life as a live
1940s radio broadcast. With the help of an ensemble that brings a few dozen
characters to the stage, the story of idealistic George Bailey unfolds as he
considers ending his life one fateful Christmas Eve.

 

 

Monky Business

 

Book by Todd Mueller, Music & Lyrics by Gregg Opelka

A Musical Comedy with Monks, Mayhem and Merriment

February 5, 6, 12, 13, 19, 21, 26 & 27

A poisoned venison-and-whipped-cream pie, a radio mystery, a zany
ventriloquist act, a witty Abbot-and-Costello inspired routine about faith,
a minor miracle and plenty of great, hummable songs all combine in a crazy
quilt of monks, mayhem and merriment. Five fun-loving monks battle good
against evil during a radio-thon fundraiser to keep a developer from turning
the monastery into a casino. The Brothers take turns singing and performing
vaudeville routines in an effort to raise $250,000 to save the monastery. 

 

City of Angels

 

Music by Cy Coleman, lyrics by David Zippel, book by Larry Gelbart.

A Jazzy, Award-Winning, Musical Comedy

April 30, May 1, 7, 8, 14, 15, 16, 21 & 22

CITY OF ANGELS is the rarest of musical comedies; one that is not only
loaded with music and written in the

contemporary jazz idiom, but also filled with sidesplitting comedy. Set in
the glamorous, seductive Hollywood of the 40's, the world of film studios
and flimsy negligees, the show chronicles the misadventures of Stine, a
young novelist, attempting a screenplay for movie producer/director, Buddy
Fidler and his alter ego and book detective character of Stone, prone to
decadence and homicide with a liberal sprinkling of femmes fatale. The
musical weaves together the two plots into one. Winner of 6 Tony Awards
(including best musical), 12 Drama Desk Awards (including Outstanding
Musical), the Edgar Award for Best Play and 5 Olivier Awards.

 

If you are interested in directing any of these shows, please contact Adam
Young at avyoung at roadrunner.com
