Announcing Our 2021-2022 Season
|
Sylvia
|
Middle-aged, upper middle class Greg finds Sylvia, a stray, exuberant lab/poodle mix dog in the park, and brings her home, much to his wife Kate’s dismay. Kate is looking forward to some independence now that their children are away in college and is eager to advance her career. Greg bonds with Sylvia and skips work to roam the streets of Manhattan with his new best friend, while Kate grows increasingly frustrated with her distracted husband. Loyalty is tested between man, wife and man’s best friend. A. R. Gurney’s Sylvia is a smart, silly, sophisticated, and occasionally salty comedy about relationships, nature, and growing older.

Calendar Girls
|
When Annie’s husband John dies of leukemia, she and best friend Chris resolve to raise money for a new settee in the local hospital waiting room. They
manage to persuade four fellow Women’s Institute members to pose nude with them for an “alternative” calendar, with a little help from hospital porter
and amateur photographer Lawrence. The news of the women’s charitable venture spreads like wildfire, and hordes of press soon descend on their small village. The calendar is a success, but Chris and Annie’s friendship is put to the test under the strain of their new-found fame.

Disenchanted!
|
Poisoned apples. Glass slippers. Who needs ’em?!
Not Snow White and her posse of disenchanted princesses in the hilarious hit musical that’s anything but Grimm. The original storybook heroines are
none-too-happy with the way they’ve been portrayed in today’s pop culture so they’ve tossed their tiaras and have come to life to set the record straight. Forget the princesses you think you know – these royal renegades are here to comically belt out the truth.
“Outstanding Off-Broadway Musical” nomination (Outer Critics Circle Awards) and “Best New Off-Broadway Musical” nomination (Off Broadway Alliance).
Contains adult language and content.

June is Pride Month
In June, we celebrate pride and honor those involved in the Stonewall Riots on June 28, 1969. It's a celebration of the entire LGBTQIA+ community! The rainbow aptly signifies the colorful activities and flavors of this month-long celebration. Commemorations and memorials are also held for members of the community who have lost their lives to hate crimes and HIV/AIDS. Campaigns and rallies aim to promote and preserve the history and well-being of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community.
Pride Month by the Numbers (from Nationaltoday.com)
- 52% – the percentage of LGBTQ people who’ve experienced depression recently.
- 1 in 8 – the number of LGBTQ people who have experienced unequal treatment from healthcare staff.
- 46% – the percentage of lesbian, gay, and bisexual people who are open about their sexual orientation with their family.
- 4.1% – the estimated percentage of women who identify as LGBT
