The 18th Season, titled 'On the Wings of Fate!', marks the company's last in its current Glendale location before the move in Fall '10 to its spacious new venue. The Fall 2009 line-up opens October 3 with Shakespeare's Richard III, followed by a new adaptation of Dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment and Michael Frayn's Noises Off. The Spring 2010 offerings are Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing, Clifford Odets' Awake and Sing! and John Millington Synge's The Playboy of the Western World. The company also reprises for the third consecutive year its critically acclaimed and popular production of Beckett's Waiting for Godot for 10 performances in January 2010.
