Season XII
Season XII
| Info on Season XII to be announced in February 08. Below is what we wowed audiences with in 2007. Be sure to check back for updates. Daddy's Dyin' Who's Got the Will? A Comedy by Del Shores Playing July 5, 11, 17, 20, 24 and 28 "Set in a small Texas town in anytime, U.S.A., Dyin' concerns the reunion of a family gathered to await the imminent death of their patriarch, who has recently suffered a physically as well as mentally disabling stroke. In essence, however, it is not the story of the impending demise of the father or of the drafting of his will, but of a rebirth of the spirit of the family unit. Without becoming ponderous, losing a sense of humor or pandering to timeworn cliches about Texans or Texas drawls, the story ... shares many elements of a good summer novel: it's a fast, delicious, easy read with funny moments, tense moments, touching moments, and characters you care about." Hollywood Reporter. "A masterful comedy." Variety. "One funny play." Tolucan Canyon Crier and Magnolian. "A well written piece of mainstream theatre that's consistently funny and occasionally touching." L.A. Times. "A knockout." L.A. Weekly. Bullshot Crummond A Farce by Ron House, Diz White, Alan Sherman, John Neville Andrews and Derek Cunningham Playing July 6, 12, 18, 21, 26 This parody of low budget 30s detective movies typifies British heroism. Teutonic villain Otto von Brunno and his evil mistress crash their plane in the English countryside and kidnap Professor Fenton who has discovered a formula for making synthetic diamonds. Bullshot Crummond is called to the rescue. Otto paralyzes Crummond with a fiendish ray. He rams a stick of dynamite in Crummond's mouth which will explode when the next person enters the room. Rosemary enters, but the static electricity in her fur wrap averts the detonation. They pursue in a hair raising car chase, but plunge over a cliff. They sneak into the dungeons where the professor is being tortured, but Crummond hopelessly loses the ensuing saber duel. Unperturbed, Crummond finally triumphs by shooting the rest of the cast. "Uproarious." Int. Herald Tribune . "Marvelous." London Sunday Telegraph. Catfish Moon A Comedy by Laddy Sartin "…full of the most bodacious joviality…the ending is pure delight, comic writing as sweet as it comes." — Charlotte Observer. Playing July 10, 14, 19, 25, 27 THE STORY: The old fishing pier out on the end of Cypress Lake has just fallen under the magic of another Catfish Moon. It was the favorite hangout for three best friends when they were kids—skipping school, skinny dipping and even experiencing the mysteries of kissing girls. Now Curley, Gordon and Frog are older, and they have tasted the bitterness of life as well as the sweetness, and the pressures and problems that come with middle age have eroded the closeness between Frog and Gordon. The final straw comes when Frog discovers that Gordon is dating his ex-wife. Curley, the "big brother" of the bunch, in an attempt to recapture the friendship and settle all disputes, convinces Frog and Gordon to go on an overnight fishing trip like old times. On the pier, the weight of adulthood is lifted by laughter and their love of fishing, and the three guys discover that their friendship was never really lost. However, in the midst of catching the biggest fish of all time, life brings them back to a painful reality. The poignant resolution of the play brings Gordon and Frog to the realization that life is too precious and too short to let true friendship get away. |
