Open-Door Playhouse is Celebrating Women in Theater with a month of plays written by, directed by, and starring women.

In this short play, Annie and Frannie Go to a Funeral, just like the title says. The funeral is for Artie, Annie's husband, and her first love. The marriage was not always happy, particularly safter the tragic death of their son. Annie is there to say goodbye. Frannie is there as Annie's friend. But Annie and Frannie are more than friends. Now that Artie will be out of the way, will Annie and Frannie be able to have a life together of their own choosing?

Open-Door Playhouse will present the audio play of The Christensen Brothers, written by Michael J. Moore of the Washington State Department of Corrections, directed by Joanne McGee-Lamb, and presented as part of Open-Door Playhouse's Prison Plays series.

Catworks Productions is pleased to present the premiere of An Evening of One Acts brought to you by Bernadette Armstrong & Wendy Winter. The evening includes playwright Bernadette Armstrong's JOAN, directed by Collette Rutherford, and WHAT DID THEY SAY by playwright Wendy Winter, directed by Adam Matalon. The two acts will premiere at Theatre Unlimited, March 22 - April 6, 2019.

No doubt most of us have fond memories of our senior year in high school, with our Senior Prom being one of the many highlights of that year. Nostalgia for that year fuels the happy story of four friends in THE MARVELOUS WONDERETTES, a 1999 musical comedy with a book by Roger Bean that has gone on to be presented in countless productions all over the world, including the current one being presented at Crown City Theatre in NoHo through February 25, 2018, directed and choreographed to bring back starlight memories by Robert Marra with musical direction by William A. Reilly.

'Somewhere in the Middle' is about a Jewish-Christian, middle-class family living in the Midwest. It's a funny and heartwarming comic-drama about prejudices and religious beliefs, which are brought to the forefront when the eldest over-achieving child (Sarah) comes home for the Passover/Easter holiday dressed in Muslim garb.

Playwright Rajiv Joseph, best known for his critically acclaimed Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo has done it again with his world premiere play Archduke now onstage at the MTF through June 4. Based on fact and meticulously researched in Sarajevo where Archduke Ferdinand was assassinated in 1914 by Joseph and his director Giovanna Sardelli, the play has the ring of truth, but what catapults it into the sphere of brilliance is its dark humor that masks the gravity beneath.

Center Theatre Group's world premiere production of 'Archduke,' written by Rajiv Joseph, began previews April 25 and will continue through June 4, 2017, at the Mark Taper Forum. Opening night is set for May 7, BroadwayWorld has photos from the festivities below!

Perhaps Kander and Ebb's best musical, apart from Chicago, Cabaret has it all: a fine book, deliciously diverse characters, dynamite music and a subtext that will not quit. The subtext being: either compromise or get out if you value your life, the latter, to be sure, the wiser. This is Berlin, circa 1930, before Hitler, but just as Nazi pressure hits the fan. Crown City Theatre's new revival production, with a small ensemble of 11, has a completely new look with slick direction from Gary Lamb.

Larry Shue's career as playwright/actor fell far too short with his sudden death in 1985. He had written two howlingly funny farces The Nerd and The Foreigner, both of which have become cult classics. Each farce exposes an eclectic group of people to a mishmash of insanity. There is an underdog at the center who fakes his identity, and as a result of this switch in role-playing, the total chaos which arises bears unexpected fruit and a major miracle or two for one and all. Now onstage at Crown City Theatre in NoHo, a superb ensemble of actors bring off The Foreigner with tremendous skill and gusto.

Crown City Theatre Company presents 'THE FOREIGNER' by Larry Shue, directed By Joanne McGee at the Crown City Theatre (located on the campus of St. Matthew's Church), 11031 Camarillo Street / North Hollywood, Calif.
