If your up for wildly imaginative the…
An excellent production of a strong play by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins…

The Mercy Seat is a voyeuristic look at less-than-stellar people who contemplate taking advantage of a dire situation for their own selfish motives. Director John Pierson tells a compelling but uncomfortable story of self-centered opportunism. Actors Franklin Killian and Kelly Schneider inhabit flaw…
The Color Purple is a mid-tier movies-to-musical adaptation that falls just short of becoming a classic. Brenda Russell, Allee Willis, and Stephen Bray’s score is competent but uneven. However, Marsha Norman’s book and her message of resilience, self-actualization, liberation, and reclamation re…
Confetti Kids addresses a serious health crisis. The contaminated Coldwater Creek has been associated with increased cancer risks and premature mortality. Aurora Behlke’s script effectively examines the risks associated with nuclear research and the safe handling of nuclear waste. Behlke’s play …

In March 2019, New Line brings you Jerry Herman and Harvey Fierstein's deliciously subversive comedy about real family values in a world that doesn't always value families. In its original 1983 production, the show was a safely old-fashioned musical comedy. But in its 2008...
