October 22 - 24, 2009 @ 7:30 pmOctober 25, 2009 @ 2 pmOctober 28 - 31, 2009 @ 7:30 pmMainstage Theatre, Marshall Performing Arts Center
Adapted from the hilarious screen success Some Like It Hot, Sugar recreates the same memorable Jack Lemon, Tony Curtis, Marilyn Monroe classic characters of Jerry, Joe, and Sugar. This prohibition era, zany musical farce romps from Chicago to Miami, promising gangster chases, train rides, boat rides, cross-dressing, confused proposals, millionaires, and starving musicians. Truly a ride worth reserving!

This family friendly Commedia delle’Arte scenario features the miser Pantalone attempting to marry his daughter to the son of the rich Doctor Graziano. As the zany action unfolds, a scoundrel, some wily servants, and a huge crate of sausages get in the way of the marriage. The style of the 17th century Commedia features a familiar plot, characters we’ve come to know and enjoy, traditional masks, and hilarious physical comedy routines.

Jean-Francois Millet, a young painter of genius, is in love with Marie Leroux but in debt to a villainous picture-dealer, Bastien Andre. Andre forecloses on Millet, threatening debtor’s prison unless Marie marries him. Millet realizes that the only way he can pay his debts and keep Marie from marrying Andre is to die, as it is only dead painters who achieve fame and fortune. Millet fakes his death and prospers, all while passing himself off as his own sister, the Widow Tillou. Now a rich “widow,” he must find a way to get out of a dress, return to life, and marry Marie. Don’t miss this hilarious unburied gem by Mark Twain, brought to life in a new adaptation by David Ives.

From the renowned Irish playwright Frank McGuinness comes this funny and compassionate play that tells the story of five women working in a shirt factory in northern Ireland. Faced with the threat of redundancy, they come together through song, laughter and protest to stand up for their rights, revealing their innermost hopes and fears in the process. A beautiful, engaging play that tugs at the heartstrings.
