Upcoming Shows & Events


Bonnie & Clyde

Book by Ivan Menchell | Lyrics by Don Black | Music by Frank Wildhorn

At the height of the Great Depression, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow went from two small-town nobodies in West Texas to America’s most renowned folk heroes and Texas law enforcement’s worst nightmares. Fearless, shameless and alluring, the Tony-nominated Bonnie & Clyde, from the legendary Frank Wildhorn (Jekyll & HydeCivil WarDracula) is the electrifying story of love, adventure and crime that captured the attention of an entire country.

When Bonnie and Clyde meet, their mutual cravings for excitement and fame immediately set them on a mission to chase their dreams. Their bold and reckless behavior turns the young lovers’ thrilling adventure into a downward spiral, putting themselves and their loved ones in trouble with the law. Forced to stay on the run, the lovers resort to robbery and murder to survive. As the infamous duo’s fame grows bigger, their inevitable end draws nearer.

New Life

An Original Musical

Book, Music, and Lyrics by James McGowan

This jazz-rock-blues musical set in 2010 is a story about a woman rebuilding herself and her family after her abusive husband dies. Her
family of three adult kids—Alexandra (Alex), oldest; Robert (Robbie), middle child; Stephanie (Steph), youngest—and her minister each
bring lots of baggage on this trip. The story is set partly in the country and partly in the city, which is about one-to-two hours away. The
story tackles topics of intimate-partner abuse, child abuse, family dysfunction, alcoholism, homophobia, transphobia, misogyny, cultural differences between rural and urban life, tradition vs. change, personal growth, spiritual faith, and the Easter resurrection analogy.

Saturday Matinée at 2:30pm | Doors at 2:00
