FRIDAY NIGHTS SHOWS INCLUDE:

Specter

On a dark, rainy night a young professor drives on a twisted road through the woods near Princeton, swerves into a ditch to avoid a girl in a white dress. Then he finds himself stuck in his car with an outrageous and possibly demented young lady who might want to murder him, or make love to him, or both!

Graceland

Graceland . . . three days before the estate is to be opened to the public. Two ardent Elvis fans, Bev and Rootie, are camped out before the gates, each determined to be the first to enter the sacred precincts. Wary at first, the two soon progress from dispute to shared confidences, and a growing compassion which, in the end, moves the essentially warm-hearted Bev to defer the place of honor to her waif-like and touchingly sincere rival.

SATURDAY NIGHT SHOWS:

Thing of Beauty

The inspirational, riveting story of an Orthodox Jew who becomes an esteemed Catholic teacher and philosopher, and then, at an advanced age, joins the Carmelite Order of Nuns. The play deals with the agony of her decision to convert and the intense search for her by Nazi intelligence. Nineteen nuns are held hostage until she is captured and subsequently sent to Auschwitz. Based on a true story.

Love Song

A two elderly people attempt to recall whether or not they have been married for forty-three years, stressing how undependable memory really is, and how identical experience does not guarantee identical perception. The audience laughs (and cries) with the couple as they struggle to identify what is real and may be fantasy in their lives.

Some shows may have language or situations that is not appropriate for all viewers.
