Richard Dresser's Rounding Third will be performed March 11, 2010 - March 28, 2010. What better way to celebrate spring than the crack of the bat, the roar of the crowd, and two Little League coaches going head to head in what has to be the only baseball play to include Brigadoon, living in a van, and the fine art of equipment bag stuffing. Baseball buff Don, for whom winning is the only thing, is stuck with assistant coach Michael, who wants trophies for everyone, and whose only youth sport was, uh, well, curling. In Canada. The result is an exploding scoreboard worth of laughs.

Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol will be performed from December 10 - December 27. The show is adapted by Leigh Allan and Scott Stoney and has music arranged by Gregg Coffin. The 2008 premiere of this adaptation of the Dickens classic, designed especially for The Loft, was such a hit we?re making it a holiday tradition. Catch the spirit, and the spirits, as a Christmas party brings forth the tale of Scrooge's evolution from the grim miser of bah and humbug to a light-hearted spreader of joy. It?s a production true to the original, but with a new twist or two to add to the fun plus a wealth of delightful Christmas caroling.
