Once On This Island
March 20 - April 18, 2009
Once On This Island tells the story of Ti- Moune, the poor peasant girl sent on a journey by the Gods to test the strength of love against the power of death. The age-old story of star-crossed lovers gets a shot of Calypso rhythm and Caribbean heat in this bittersweet musical romance. Once on This Island uses soaring melodies and sultry dances to tell the story of an orphan living among the island’s poor peasants and praying for a future that seems impossible. But when divine intervention puts Ti Moune face to face with her true love, a young aristocrat, she begins a journey to find herself and reclaim her heart. A musical for the innocence in us all.

Much Ado About Nothing
Jan. 23 - Feb. 21, 2009
"When I said I would die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I were married."
It's so easy to fall in love, unless you're Beatrice and Benedick, who'd rather trade witty insults than wedding bands. It's so easy, unless you're Hero and Claudio, heading for a storybook marriage, but hitting a nasty snag at the altar. One of the most boisterous comedies ever written, Much Ado About Nothing is overflowing with scheming relatives, salacious scandal, costume parties, and a bumbling local constabulary. Much Ado is a celebration of lighthearted invention.
