WHEN WE WERE SINGING

By Dorothy Dittrich
Directed by Roy Surette
in association with Touchstone Theatre

A saga of friends and lovers, career crisis and personal angst. It is a story that switches gears in an instant to get at the heart of what makes people tick. When We Were Singing is an investigation of the friendship between four urban-dwelling lost souls. Work, loves, hopes, dreams, fears, failures – the story is pulled from the same source as our own lives. A musical like few others!

THE TRIP TO BOUNTIFUL

By Horton Foote

80-year-old Carrie plans to escape her son and his authoritarian wife, and return to Bountiful, her idealized hometown. With a new friend she plans her getaway, but alas, home isn’t as she remembers. A masterpiece about memory and the universal yearning for home.

THE LAST WIFE

By Kate Hennig
Directed by Laura McLean

Kate Parr is smart, confident and passionate: a rising star in a world of intense competition. But her obligatory marriage to Henry is rife with the threat of violence and the lure of deceit. A contemporary retelling of the compelling relationship between Katherine Parr and Henry VIII, The Last Wife is a funny, powerful examination of patriarchy, sexual politics, and women’s rights.
