5 PLAY MAINSTAGE SERIESAUG 31 - SEPT 23, 2012Music and Lyrics by Laurence O’Keefe and Nell BenjaminBook by Heather Hach • Based On the Novel by Amanda Brown and the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Motion Picture

Sorority sweetheart and homecoming queen Elle Woods doesn’t take no for an answer. When her boyfriend dumps her for someone ‘serious’ and heads off to Harvard, Elle sets out to prove him wrong by enrolling at Harvard Law School herself. Soon she is turning heads and turning the tables on staid ol’ Harvard. It’s a recipe for summa cum hilarity. Based on the best-selling film starring Reese Witherspoon, Legally Blonde rocks with the music of blonde ambition.

OCT 19 - NOV 4, 2012By Julian WilesBased On the Life and Works of Edgar Allan Poe

From the master of the macabre comes the haunting tale of Edgar Allan Poe’s own mysterious death and disappearance. With scenes from such tantalizing Poe tales as The Pit and the Pendulum and The Masque of the Red Death, Nevermore takes us to 1827 Sullivans Island, where young Edgar Allan Poe served in the army at Ft. Moultrie and penned such classics as The Gold Bug. Written by Charleston Stage Founder and Producing Artistic Director Julian Wiles.

FEB 15 - MAR 3, 2013By Sandra Fenichel Asher

A Woman Called Truth chronicles the remarkable story of Sojourner Truth from the day she was a slave girl and sold away from her family, through her struggle to free herself and her son, to her emergence as revered leader, farsighted advocate for abolition, and visionary pioneer for women’s rights. A Woman Called Truth combines Truth’s actual words with authentic slave songs, spirituals, and folk songs of the period to tell a moving and powerful story.

MAR 8 - 24, 2013By Marc Camoletti Translated by Beverley Cross and Francis Evans

It’s the swinging 60’s and, in Paris, an American playboy is juggling love affairs with three sexy stewardesses, one from TWA, one from Lufthansa, and one from Air France. When all three unexpectedly turn up at his apartment on the same night, the comic fireworks begin! With the slamming doors of a frenzied French farce, Boeing-Boeing has had audiences laughing in the aisles in London and New York revivals and is sure to delight Charleston’s funny-bone.

APR 5 - 27, 2013Music and Lyrics by Cole Porter • Original Book by P.G. Wode-house & Guy Bolton and Howard Lindsay & Russel CrouseNew Book by Timothy Crouse and John Weidman

HOLIDAYNOV 30 - DEC 16, 2012By Philip GrecianBased On the Motion Picture A Christmas StoryThe only thing little Ralphie Parker wants for Christmas is a Daisy Brand Red Ryder BB rifle. The only things standing in his way are his no-nonsense “You’ll shoot your eye out” parents, a freezing flagpole, and the mishaps and misadventures that plague poor ten-year-old Ralphie. Based on the beloved holiday movie classic A Christmas Story, on stage it includes even more of Ralphie’s adventures drawn from humorist Jean Shepherd’s memoir In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash, on which the classic holiday comedy is based.
