One of Kentuckiana's longest-running entertainment venues celebrates its 40th anniversary with its 2014-2015 season, featuring a calendar full of regional premieres, two returning audience favorites and new ground being broken - quite literally.
Hale Centre Theatre in West Valley is currently presenting a solidly mounted production of the classic comedy ARSENIC AND OLD LACE that is sure to please fans and newcomers alike.
If you saw Georgetown Palace's recent production of Lend Me a Tenor (or if you didn't, for that matter), you have good reason to see Moon Over Buffalo, now in its final week of performances. The similarities between the two shows are easy to pinpoint. They're both by Ken Ludwig. They're both backstage farces. They both involve mistaken identities. They both easily qualify as 'door-slamming comedies.' (Their sets even have the same number of doors). And they're booth hysterical. The Palace's gift for zany, over the top comedy is back on display with Moon Over Buffalo, and once again, the audience is left in stitches.
The 2014 subscription season includes first-time Playhouse productions of the new Mel Brooks Broadway musical Young Frankenstein, Ken Ludwig's new farce The Fox on the Fairway, and Ring of Fire, the musical tribute to Johnny Cash by Richard Maltby, Jr. as well as a revival of the beloved Broadway comedy classic Arsenic and Old Lace. www.saintmichaelsplayhouse.org
