June 26 – July 18, 2009
The Little Dog Laughed
This Broadway and Off-Broadway hit of 2006 follows the adventures of Mitchell Green, a handsome young movie actor who is on the verge of major stardom. Although he is always photographed on the arms of beautiful women, he has a little secret that threatens his career as a Hollywood leading man. His  agent can’t seem to keep him in the closet due to his "slight recurring case of homosexuality." And as if that’s not enough, he falls in love with his most recent "rent boy" and wants to announce it to the world. Helping him navigate Hollywood’s choppy waters, his shark of an agent Diane does everything she can to keep him away from the rent boy and the rent boy’s girlfriend (wait, the rent boy has a girlfriend?), but it’s not smooth sailing.  Can Diane maneuver a happy ending before the final credits roll?
For Mature Audiences.

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.

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.

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.

"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.
