The Peninsula Players has announced the shows for its upcoming season.  The schedule is as follows:

Making God Laugh
6/14/2011 - 7/3/2011
A world premiere comedy. Empty nesters welcome home their children over various family holidays spanning three decades. As the parents and grown children adapt to their new adult relationships their dreams, unresolved issues, old family traditions and dubious recipes are trotted out as tensions flare up on Thanksgiving, New Years and Christmas holidays. Home is where the heart and laughs are.

The Importance of Being Earnest
7/6/2011 - 7/24/2011
Join Jack and Algernon as they navigate the perils of little white lies and frothy deceits when both English dandies claim the same alter ego, Earnest, to escape their social obligations. Hilarious antics ensue as they struggle to maintain fictitious identities while in the pursuit of the fair and lovely Gwendolyn and Cecily. Their love-struck quest is paved with delicious wit, comical twists, social foibles and the disapproval of treacherously hilarious Lady Bracknell.

A Few Good Men
7/27/2011 - 8/14/2011
Honor, Country, Code and Duty - One man is dead. Two are accused of murder. The entire Marine Corps is on trial. An inexperienced U.S. Navy JAG officer leads the defense team as a powder keg explodes at Guantanamo Naval Base where the court martial of two soldiers uncovers a high-level conspiracy and the Marine code of honor goes on trial.

Ken Ludwig's The Fox on the Fairway
8/17/2011 - 9/4/2011
Follow the shenanigans of rival country clubs Quail Valley and Crouching Squirrel as they head into their 43rd annual golf grudge match. Bogeys, backswings, and birdies, oh my! When the best golfer switches teams Dickie, the Quail club president, has no choice but to replace him with Justin, his personal assistant who only golfs well while under stress. Thanks to Justin's high-strung fiancee, he is always under stress. This new comedy is filled with mistaken identities and double-entendres.

God of Carnage
9/7/2011 - 10/16/2011
Two sets of parents meet to deal with the unruly playground behavior of their sons in this 2009 Tony-award winning play. Will a calm and civil debate between grown-ups prevail? Or will the adults find themselves in a laugh-out-loud train-wreck of frenzied discourse filled with tantrums, name-calling and tears. Boys will be boys, but the adults are typically worse much worse. Tony award-winning best play. Mature language.
