 Jesus Christ Superstar
Lyrics by Tim Rice
Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber
Directed by John Blackwell

Jesus’s meteor-like rise in renown provides, as the title
suggests, a parallel to contemporary celebrity worship. As his
radical teachings are evermore embraced, Judas questions
the enlightened motives of this new prophet, resulting in
betrayal. Christ’s final days are dramatized with emotional
intensity, thought-provoking edge and explosive theatricality.
Propelled by a stirring score, by turns driving and majestic,
satirical and tender, JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR illuminates the
transcendent
power
of the human spirit with a passion that
goes straight to the heart.

The Curious Savage
 By John Patrick

Mrs. Savage has been left a fortune by her husband and wants
to make the best use of it, in spite of the efforts of her grownup
stepchildren to get their hands on it. The children commit
her to a “sanatorium.” But Mrs. Savage is determined to help
others realize their dreams. While committed, she meets
various kindly social misfits. The self-seeking stepchildren are
driven to distraction by their vain efforts to browbeat Mrs.
Savage, but she preserves her equanimity and leads them on
a merry chase. The dominant mood is high comedy, and the
audience is left with a feeling that the neglected virtues of
kindness and affection have not been entirely lost in a world
that seems motivated at times only by greed and dishonesty.
 Don't Drink The Water

A cascade of comedy and a solid hit on Broadway, this
affair takes place inside an American embassy behind the
Iron Curtain. An American tourist, a caterer by trade, and his
wife and daughter rush into the embassy two steps ahead
of the police who suspect them of spying and picture
taking. It’s not much of a refuge, for the ambassador is
absent and his son, now in charge, has been expelled from
a dozen countries and the continent of Africa. Nevertheless,
they carefully and frantically plot their escape, and the
ambassador’s son and the caterer’s daughter even have time
to fall in love.
You Can't Take It With You
By Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman
Directed by Steve Allen

 At first the Sycamores seem mad, but it is not long
before we realize that if they are mad, the rest of the
world is madder. In contrast are the unhappy Kirbys.
Tony, son of the Kirbys, falls in love with Alice Sycamore
and brings his parents to dine at the Sycamore home
on the wrong evening. The shock sustained by the
Kirbys, shows Alice that marriage with Tony is out of the
question. Tony, who knows the Sycamores are right and
his own people wrong, will not give her up, and in the
end Mr. Kirby is converted to the happy madness of the
Sycamores.
