Love SongFebruary 19 - March 13, 2010
Love Song
a romantic comedy by John Kolvenbach

A 2007 Olivier Award nominee for Best New Comedy that premiered at Chicago's famed Steppenwolf Theatre in 2006. Beane is an exile from life -- an oddball. His well-meaning sister and brother-in-law try to make time for him, but no one seems to get through. Following a burglary at Beane's apartment, he turns blissfully happy. Baffled, his sister must try to unravel the story behind his mysterious new love, Molly. This offbeat comedy becomes a rhapsody to the power of love in all its forms.

March 26 – April 17, 2010
All My Sons
a drama by Arthur Miller

Joe Keller's company manufactures engine parts for the Air Force. A shipment of faulty parts has resulted in the deaths of 21 pilots. Joe's oldest son, Larry, a pilot, is missing and presumed dead. Joe's younger son, Chris, is determined to set the truth free at all costs. Winner of the Drama Critics Award for Best New Play in 1947, ALL MY SONS established Arthur Miller as a leading voice in the American theater, and introduced themes that tread through his work as a whole; the relationships between fathers and sons and the conflict between business and personal ethics.

There will be a daytime student matinee of this classic play on Friday, April 9th at 10:30 a.m. To book a school group, please contact the Carpenter Square Theatre business office: (405) 232-6500.)

Fugue
a drama by Lee Thuna

A woman is found wandering the streets of Chicago, her feet blistered and bloodied. The doctors recognize this as a symptom of the "fugue" state of amnesia, where the victim is literally running away from an intolerable memory. The young psychiatrist assigned to her case is running away from his own demons -- a mistake he made with a patient early in his career. The closer he gets to piecing together the puzzle of the woman's life, the more she longs to run. If she remembers the terrible occurrence that sent her running, will he be repeating the mistake he made before? Winner of the American Theatre Critics Circle Award for Best Play in Regional Theatre.

Reefer Madness
music by Dan Studney, book & lyrics by Kevin Murphy

"Meant to be a serious documentary on how the demon weed turns apple-cheeked American teens into hollow-eyed homicidal zombies, the movie's unintentional humor made it a midnight movie staple on college campuses in the '60s. But while the move is so glaringly bad, the Off-Broadway musical of REEFER MADNESS...is deliberately outlandish and silly. And that's what makes it so good. [The show includes] a dozen or so over-the-top and hilarious production numbers." -- NY Daily News

Though set in 1936, the year of the film's release, REEFER MADNESS incorporates musical styles ranging from jazz and doo-wop to rock and disco, and it provides characters that are accessible to young audiences even as they parody old-fashioned stereotypes.
