The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis (The Rep) is proud to announce its 2010-2011 season of performances on the Mainstage as well as the three productions to be performed by its Imaginary Theatre Company (ITC). The three productions to be included in the Studio Theatre season will be announced in July.

The Mainstage series opens at the Loretto-Hilton Center for the Performing Arts (130 Edgar Road, Webster Groves) on September 8, 2010 with the classic Kaufman and Hart comedy You Can't Take It With You.

Other productions in the Mainstage series, which continues through April 2011, include the World Premiere, pre-Broadway production of Matthew Lombardo's High starring Kathleen Turner; the multi award-winning Louis & Keely: Live at The Sahara; The Fall of Heaven, a new play by renowned mystery writer Walter Mosley; Shakespeare's most chilling tragedy, Macbeth; and the nostalgic and charming Over The Tavern.
