Opening night approaches and the cast of a ridiculous bedroom farce is still struggling to pull their act together. In this wildly inventive and hilarious comedy, audiences get a peek behind the scenes (literally) and see that sometimes the hilarity backstage can rival what's happening on-stage.
Welcome to the Roaring Twenties, the uninhibited age of the Charleston, flappers and speakeasies. Young Millie Dillmount of Kansas arrives in New York determined to take the town by storm - and does. Based on the Academy Award winning movie starring Julie Andrews, and winner of six Tony Awards including Best Musical, Thoroughly Modern Millie is great fun for the whole family.
Neil Simon, America's master of comedy, offers up an unorthodox dinner party in a private dining room in Paris where six guests arrive unaware of who the other guests are or the purpose of their gathering. As each guest sorts through this unusual gathering, it becomes apparent that this event will forever change their lives. A bittersweet comedy about marriage, fidelity and missed opportunities from the writer of The Odd Couple and Biloxi Blues. Show Sponsor: Lakewood Center Associates
The lead actor has left the company in order to become a professional wrestler and the leading lady has slipped into insanity. Nevertheless the show must go on! A dotty old curate attempts to lead his shorthanded company through a production of one of Shakespeare's most beloved comedies, As You Like It, even though they have about five times as many roles as actors. The results are as hilarious as they are disastrous.
In this musical adaptation of the popular film, times are tough in Buffalo for a group of unemployed steelworkers. To add insult to injury, a group of professional male stripteasers are stealing their thunder. In a desperate move, these ordinary guys decide to band together and stage a show of their own. Working to overcome their anxieties and fears, this unlikely troupe discovers confidence, courage and camaraderie.

Ever seen a play where the wrong two characters fell in love? Ever wished that you could change the ending? Now you can with this murder mystery musical based on Charles Dickens' unfinished novel. After a Christmas dinner party, Edwin Drood walks off into the night and disappears. Although murder is suspected, no body can be found. There are many suspects, but it will be up to the audience to decide whodunit! Winner of the Drama Desk Award and six Tony Awards including Best Musical.  Show Sponsor: The Bank of Oswego
