Into the Breeches!
By George Brant
Directed by Christine Crawfis

A laugh out loud comedy | Main Stage
Delicious celebration of love, art, and community.

That time-honored adage, “The Show Must Go On,” takes on new meaning in this endearing and moving comedy set at a small theater in Wappingers Falls, NY in 1942. With the actors and director off at war, a group of passionate women face the daunting challenge of preserving the theatre’s reputation for mounting outstanding Shakespearean productions. Crammed with laughs and an abundance of visual humor, their fierce determination and unbridled enthusiasm will have audiences cheering as they prove that art and community triumph, even in times of peril.

Into The Breeches is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. concordtheatricals.com

Perfect Arrangement
By Topher Payne
Directed by Sydnie Grosberg Ronga

A comic tale of closeted lives.
Contemporary Comedy | Main Stage

It’s 1950, and new colors are being added to the Red Scare. Two U.S. State Department employees, Bob and Norma, have been tasked with identifying sexual deviants within their ranks. There’s just one problem: both Bob and Norma are involved in a carefully constructed cover-up.

Inspired by the true story of the earliest stirrings of the gay rights movement, Perfect Arrangement merges madcap sitcom-style laughs with provocative drama as two U.S. State Department employees struggle to maintain their cover – and their sanity – in mid-century America.

Perfect Arrangement is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals, on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. concordtheatricals.com

BABEL
By Jacqueline Goldfinger

A funny, and at times terrifying vision of a future.

MARJORIE PRIME
By Jordan Harrison
Directed by Cynthia Topps

A science fiction thriller | CP2 Mini Festival
Clever in concept, alive with humor, and terribly haunting.

It’s the age of artificial intelligence, and 85-year-old Marjorie — a jumble of, fading memories — has a handsome new companion who’s programmed to feed the story of her life back to her. What would we remember, and what would we forget, if given the chance? In this richly spare play, Jordan Harrison explores the mysteries of human identity.
