Ripcord
March 20, 21, 22, 27, 28, 29
Ripcord is a comedy. A sunny room on an upper floor is prime real estate in the Bristol Place Senior Living Facility, so when the cantankerous Abby is forced to share her quarters with new-arrival Marilyn, she has no choice but to get rid of the infuriatingly chipper woman by any means necessary. A seemingly harmless bet between the old women quickly escalates into a dangerous game of one-upmanship that reveals not just the tenacity of these worthy opponents, but also deeper truths that each would rather remain hidden. Solidly crafted, the play is loaded with moments of surprise, both wacky and more substantial. By Pulitzer Prize and Tony award winner David Lindsay-Abaire. Dramatists Play Service.

She Loves Me

She Loves Me is considered by many to be the most charming musical ever written, “She Loves Me” is a warm romantic comedy with an endearing innocence and a touch of old-world elegance. Set in a 1930s European perfumery, we meet shop clerks, Amalia and Georg, who, more often than not, don't see eye to eye. After both respond to a “lonely hearts advertisement” in the newspaper, they now live for the love letters that they exchange. But the identity of their admirers remains unknown. The Mikos Lazlos play “Parfumerie”, on which it is based, has inspired many adaptations, including the beloved film You've Got Mail starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks. MTI Shows, Inc.
