The Winter’s Tale
July 9 – August 22
by William Shakespeare
directed by Dawn McAndrews
Tragic, romantic, hilarious, and
uplifting, The Winter’s Tale is
an enchanting story about the
evil of jealousy and the power of
forgiveness. Filled with mature
wisdom infused with youthful
optimism, the tale begins with a
serious question, moves through
lighthearted romance, and ends
with a miracle.

Fallen Angels
July 16 – August 22
by Noel Coward
directed by Brendon Fox
Best friends, Jane and Julia,
“fell” seven years earlier when
they had affairs with the same
dashing Frenchman. Now settled
into humdrum marriages, the
two pine for passion. With their
husbands away for the weekend,
the women receive word that their
lover has returned. In Coward’s
intoxicatingly witty comedy
passions soar, spirits fly, and
insults are hurled as the women
grapple with fidelity and the flush
of forbidden fruit.

The Real Inspector Hound
July 30 – August 21
by Tom Stoppard
directed by Matthew Arbour
Feuding theatre critics Birdboot
and Moon, the first a fusty
philanderer and the second a
pompous and vindictive second
stringer, are swept into the
whodunit they are reviewing. As
mists rise about isolated Muldoon
Manor, Moon and Birdboot become
dangerously implicated in the
lethal activities of an escaped
madman, caught in a “mousetrap”
of Agatha Christie’s making.
