Alexander and the Horrible, Terrible, No Good, Very Bad, Day - February 24 - March 4, directed by Ryan Michael Haase - Nothing is going right for Alexander today, not school, not family, not his best friend, not anything.

Rachel the Clever! - March 24 - April 1 - directed by Jimi Kinstle is a new-play collaboration with the Center for Jewish Education!
