Preview Mar. 14

Directed by Bob Baker

Starring Brenda Robins & Fiona Reid

In a society where the rules are crystal clear, Constance dares to
ignore them all. For her, marriage is not a sacred institution but
a contract, to be re-examined and renewed – when necessary. As
we follow the unexpected twists and turns of Somerset Maugham’s
brilliant social comedy, Constance sets about turning bad luck,
unfaithful friends and local gossip to her own advantage.

over the tavern
by Tom Dudzick
April 19 - May 12
Preview Apr. 18

Directed by Robb Paterson

Starring Doreen Brownstone, Ellen Peterson & Christopher Sigurdson

Life was simple in 1959, right? Not so in Buffalo, New York where all hell is breaking loose over Chet’s Bar & Grill. Over the Tavern is an irreverently intelligent comedy about growing up Catholic in 1950’s America as seen through the eyes of 12-year-old Rudy Pazinski. When Rudy starts to ponder life’s big questions, his tyrannical teacher Sister Clarissa is fit to be tied over the boy’s salvation.

A pair of British railway surveyors and their Chinese servant are

Waiting for Godot meets The Odd Couple, Morris Panych takes a
darkly comic look at man, mountains and the meaning of life.
