Book by George Abbott and Douglass Wallop
Based on the Novel The Year the Yankees Lost the Pennant by Douglass Wallop
New Adaptation by Will Power and Doug Wright
Additional Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens
Directed and Choreographed by Sergio Trujillo

SYNOPSIS: One of America's most beloved musicals is coming back, dusted off and spit-shined for a new generation. All the elements that made it famous are there: a diehard love of baseball, one man's fateful (and hilarious) pact with the Devil, and Broadway's sexiest femme fatale...but gently re-tooled
for its first major revival in the 21st Century. Featuring iconic songs like “Whatever Lola Wants” and “Who’s Got the Pain?”, this production immerses audiences in a whirlwind of temptation, ambition, love, and sacrifice in this bold new adaptation by Will Power and Pulitzer Prize and Tony Awardwinner
Doug Wright, additional lyrics by Tony Award-winner Lynn Ahrens, and directed and choreographed by Tony Award-winner Sergio Trujillo

Written By Reggie D. White
Directed by Lili-Anne Brown
A Co-Production with South Coast Repertory

SYNOPSIS: Written by Reggie D. White and directed by Lili-Anne Brown, Fremont Ave. is a raw, electric world premiere that moves across decades with the force of memory and the rhythm of Spades. From young love and big dreams to buried resentment and unmet expectations, three generations of Black men face off at the card table and come face-to-face with each other. At the
center of it all is the family’s formidable matriarch: beloved, feared, and never forgotten. What begins as a game becomes a reckoning with masculinity, identity, and the weight of silence passed down. Fremont Ave. lays every card on the table and dares you to do the same.

Music by Richard Rodgers
Lyrics by Lorenz Hart
New Book by Richard LaGravenese
Based on the Original Book by John O’Hara
Co-Directed and Choreographed by Savion Glover
Co-Directed by Tony Goldwyn

SYNOPSIS: The year is 1940-something, and Chicago’s night scene is sizzling. Enter Joey Evans. A slick-talking, velvet-voiced songster with dreams bigger than the bandstand. But in a city where the right connections mean everything, he is caught between a bright-eyed chorus girl and a wealthy widow who can bankroll his big break—for a price. As the lights dim and the music swells, Joey’s got a choice to make: play it straight or risk it all for the spotlight. This classic Rodgers and Hart score, including “Bewitched,” “What is a Man,” and “I Could Write a Book,” now includes “Where or When,” “This Can’t Be Love,” and “The Lady is a Tramp,” among others. Co-directed by Tony Award-winning
choreographer Savion Glover and actor, director, and producer Tony Goldwyn, the stakes are high, the music is hot, and the game of romance and ambition never sounded so good.

As the town becomes a stage for national attention, personal conviction clashes with
public opinion in a trial that transcends its time. Inherit the Wind, the American classic by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee is a searing, deeply human portrait of a country still wrestling with the cost—and courage—of progress.

As the world around them transforms, they find unexpected solace, love, and companionship.

SYNOPSIS: TLC blazed a trail and changed the game. The trio stormed the 90s music scene not only topping the charts—but creating the look, sound, and soul of a generation. With their unforgettable anthems, fly dance moves, and head-turning style, Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins, Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, and Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas defined what it meant to be women in music. The most successful female group of all time, they’ve spent over three decades breaking boundaries and empowering generations. Now their journey comes to the stage with the fresh, new musical, CrazySexyCool.

Visionary writer and director, Kwame Kwei-Armah (One Love: The Bob Marley Musical) brings TLC’s
(mostly true) story of unshakable sisterhood to the stage, featuring a powerhouse cast, high-octane choreography, and multi-platinum Billboard hits like “Waterfalls,” “Creep,” “Unpretty,” and of course, “No Scrubs.” Go beyond the fiery scandals, explosive creative clashes, and harrowing tragedies to
experience this remarkable tale of defiance, triumph, and love.

No Scrubs. Just Legends.

FEATHERBABY
By David Templeton
Directed by Weylin Symes
1st Rehearsal: August 19, 2025
Performances: September 12-28, 2025

SEEKING:

Featherbaby, CAST. (30-something; male, female or non-binary, any ethnicity) An Amazon parrot; energetic and highly physical. Featherbaby lives in a world of memory, fantasy, instinct and observation, careening wildly from one to the other. They generally like to think they are bigger and tougher than they are. Though taken from the jungle long, long ago, ocelots still give them nightmares.

Mason, (25-35; male, any ethnicity) A seasoned competitive jigsaw puzzler who dreams of becoming a lawyer, Mason is familiar with animal law but is not fond of animals. He is cautious and reserved, but confident, good-humored and sweet-natured. He once fell in love with a woman who was married, and when she drunkenly asked him at a party if he loved her, he lied and said no. He has a recurring dream that he is the only clothed person at a nudity-optional picnic, but knows he looks good in a suit.

Angie, (25-35, female, any ethnicity) A freelance crime-scene photographer and rookie jigsaw puzzler, Angie is confident, quirky and playful, skilled at many pastimes but intentionally never locked down into anything. She is highly intelligent, prone to gallows humor and bad puns, is extremely curious, and consciously works at being somewhat unpredictable. In high school she was Valedictorian, a teacher’s assistant, a stoner, a born-again, a goth, a dropout and a cheerleader – not necessarily in that order.

WHAT THE CONSTITUTION MEANS TO ME
By Heidi Schreck

Engaging, dynamic, smart, passionate, and witty. Alternates from adulthood to her 15-year-old self throughout the play.

Legionnaire/Mike, (male Identifying, mid 40s) Heidi’s friend; first appears as an assertive American Legionnaire monitoring the speech and debate, and a stickler for the rules/law. He later turns into Heidi’s ally and assistant, reflective and genuine.

Teen Debater, (female, about 15) Shows up in the show's second half to debate the Constitution with Heidi. Good debater, passionate, and articulate.
