The Odd Couple

by Neil Simon
directed by Amanda White

If comedy thrives on contrasts, The Odd Couple offers a perfect situation. Felix is prim, fastidious, and a compulsive cleaner; Oscar is a gruff, sloppy sportswriter, to whom a floor is a perfect place to toss a sandwich. The conflicts are obvious and endless, as each upsets the other's way of life in one of Neil Simon's most loved comedies.

Forever Plaid

by Stuart Ross
directed by Chris Karki
music direction by Anthony J Sofie

Forever Plaid is one of the most popular and successful musicals of our time. This deliciously goofy revue centers on four young, eager male singers killed in a car crash in the 1950's on the way to their first big concert, and now miraculously revived for the posthumous chance to fulfill their dreams and perform the show that never was. Singing in the closest of harmonies, the "Plaids" are a guaranteed good time, with a program of beloved pop hits from the 1950's.

Almost, Maine

by John Cariani
directed by Anne M. Byrd

On a cold, clear, moonless night in the middle of winter, all is not quite what it seems in the remote, mythical town of Almost, Maine. As the northern lights hover in the star-filled sky above, Almost's residents find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected and often hilarious ways. Knees are bruised. Hearts are broken. But the bruises heal, and the hearts mend—almost—in this delightful midwinter night's dream.

Proof

by David Auburn
directed by Amy Rummenie

On the eve of her twenty-fifth birthday, Catherine, a troubled young woman, has spent years caring for her brilliant but unstable father, a famous mathematician. Now, following his death, she must deal with her own volatile emotions; the arrival of her estranged sister, Claire; and the attentions of Hal, a former student of her father's who hopes to find valuable work in the 103 notebooks that her father left behind. Over the long weekend that follows, a burgeoning romance and the discovery of a mysterious notebook draw Catherine into the most difficult problem of all: How much of her father's madness—or genius—will she inherit?
Proof won the 2001 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and Tony Award for Best Play.
