From the Artistic DirectorAs we step into our second season here at Thingamajig Theatre Company, I cannot help but feel the immense pride of working with the community I have always dreamed of working with,

From suspensedul dramas (A Steady Rain, Hidden), to laugh-out-loud comedies (Office Space: The Muscial), to heart-warming and poignant classics (It’s a Wonderful Life, The Vagina Monologues), to our upcoming blockbuster summer musicals (Summer 2013), prepare yourself to be suprised thise season and on into next summer. As a season ticket holder, you are able to enjoy a truly magical live theatre experience all year round.

And, with a membership, you’re supporting the artists who make this theatre what it is. If you are not yet a member, I encourae you to become one so you never have to miss out on any of the benefits we have to offer. It has been a pleasure watching this theatre grow and the community support it.

Without you, we would not be able to do what we do. Thank you. It is my hope that you enjoy eveything that you help bring to this stage.

All the Best,Tim Moore, Artistic Director

SUMMER AT

The Full Monty

Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Music, 2000

Six unemployed Buffalo steelworkers, low on both cash and

prospects, decide to present a strip act at a local club after

seeing their wives’ enthusiasm for a touring company of

Chippendales. One of them, Jerry, declares that their show will

be better than the Chippendales dancers because they’ll go

“the full monty” — strip all the way. As they prepare for the show,

working through their fears, self-consciousness, and anxieties,

they overcome their inner demons and find strength in their

camaraderie. Based on the 1997 film of the same name.

Monty Python’s SpamalotTony Award for Best Muscial, 2005

Experience Monty Python in a whole new way with this side-splitting musical, “lovingly ripped off from” the 1975 film, Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Spamalot retells the legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table, and features a bevy of beautiful show girls, not to mention cows, killer rabbits, and French people. Did we mention the bevy of beautiful show girls? Songs include “He Is Not Dead Yet”, “Find Your Grail”, “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life”, and “The Song That Goes Like This”.
