Snow White Based on the story collected by the Brothers Grimm
Directed by Loretta Curtis
January 13 through 27, 2007
Saturdays at 11:00 a.m. & 3:00 p.m.


    It's the ageless fairy tale of the lonely princess. Her beauty arouses the murderous jealousy of her stepmother queen when the queen's magic mirror proclaims Snow White the "fairest in the land." She escapes to the home of the seven dwarfs, and the queen pursues her with a poisoned apple. But true love conquers all. Our version, performed by our young actors, adds a few humorous touches to the familiar story.

    Billy Crocker runs into his old pal Reno Sweeny -- she's an evangelist turned entertainer -- and Hope, a young woman he loves. They're sailing for Europe -- Hope with her mother and, Billy's sorry to see, with Sir Evelyn, her fiance. Billy decides to stow away and make Hope his own. Moonface Mullins, Public Enemy Number 13, and his friend Bonnie are also making the trip. Billy asks Reno to seduce Sir Evelyn, but she decides that she likes him. Needless to say, the course of this love boat does not run smooth. But those fabulous Cole Porter songs keep on coming: the title song, "You're the Top," "I Get a Kick Out of You," "It's De-Lovely," and "Blow, Gabriel, Blow."

Jack & the Beanstalk
Adapted by Bill Springer
February 17 through March 10, 2007
Saturdays at 11:00 a.m. & 3:00 p.m.

    All the familiar characters from the classic fairy tale are here but with a little bit of a modern-day twist -- including gullible, inquisitive Jack and his poor mother; a smart, determined cow; the magical egg-laying goose; and a not-so-scary Giant and his wife. Jack's cow refuses to be sold and is constantly chased across the stage, first by the bean seller and then additional characters from other fairy tales. The smart aleck Narrator almost gets into a fight with the Mother about the magical qualities of the beans and the Giant's wife insists he mow the grass.
