by Georges Feydeau
adapted by David Ives
December 3, 4, 5, & 6, 2008, at 7:30PM

This is
the greatest of French farces, perhaps the greatest farce ever
written. Winner of a 2006 Jefferson Award for best adaptation.
“Ives’ adaptation maintains the original’s dazzling plot while
communicating Feydeau’s playful use of language to an American
audience.” —BackStage. “…[a] crisp, delightfully ridiculous
translation…” —Time Out (Chicago). “…a hilarious evening of
classic comedy.” —Chicago Critic. |

by William Shakespeare

The buzz about Athens is that Timon is a very
generous man. If you give him a gift he will triple it’s worth back
to you. For that reason, all of Athens flocks to Timon to present
him with paintings, poems, and worldly gifts. Timon enjoys giving
selflessly to his friends and acquaintances regularly and helping
them any way he can. But what happens when he is the one in need of
help? Shakespeare’s Timon of Athens explores what can happen
to and within a man when his friends desert him. Come and join us
for this tragic Shakespearean tale.

The
authors of Once On This Island, My Favorite Year,
Ragtime and the animated film Anastasia explode on the
musical theatre scene with this zany, offbeat, and very funny murder
mystery farce about an unassuming English shoe salesman forced to
take the corpse of his recently-murdered Atlantic City croupier
uncle on a week-long vacation to Monte Carlo. Should he succeed,
Harry Witherspoon stands to inherit $6,000,000. If not, the money
goes to the Universal Dog Home of Brooklyn. |
