Stages Theatre Schedule
The Andrews Brothers (Jul. 15 to Oct. 11, 2009)
It's 1943 in the South Pacific, and tonight the Andrews Sisters headline the big USO show. But when a flu outbreak quarantines the girls, stagehands Max, Lawrence and Patrick, along with pin-up girl Peggy Jones, cook up the perfect way to wow the troops and save the day--all it will take is three wigs and a lot of makeup!
Southern Rapture (Sep. 16 to Oct. 11, 2009)
Based on the true story of Charlotte Repertory Theatre's now infamous production of Angels in America, Eric Coble's latest work is a wickedly funny look at the intersection between artists and audiences, and the delicate contract theatres have with their communities.
Panto Sleeping Beauty (Nov. 18, 2009 to Jan. 3, 2010)
Following on the glass heels of last season's wildly successful Panto Cinderella, this hilarious holiday romp finds Sleeping Beauty happily at home in Houston...except there's a nasty curse on her head, her father is busy running a gigantic oil company, her nanny is a former nun seeking glory on the stage, and the love of her life just left town.
A Picasso (Jan. 27 to Feb. 21, 2010)
It's 1941, the Nazis have rolled into Paris, and Pablo Picasso has been ushered into a storage vault to authenticate three works of art the Germans have recently "acquired". The father of cubism, a virtuoso who poured his soul out onto the canvas, faces off with an enigmatic young female officer and suddenly finds himself forced to choose between art and politics, creativity and survival.
Speech and Debate (Mar. 17 to Apr. 11, 2010)
This winning, fiercely funny dark comedy is part Breakfast Club, part Arthur Miller, and was hailed in its 2007 Off-Broadway run as a brilliant look at the modern teenager.
Man From Nebraska (Apr. 21 to May 16, 2010)
A masterpiece of subtlety and grace by Pulitzer Prize-winner Tracy Letts (August, Osage County), this moving, funny play reveals yearning and deep emotion beneath the surface of seemingly tranquil lives.
The Complete History Of America (Abridged) (Jun. 2 to 27, 2010)
600 years of history in 6000 seconds! From Washington to Watergate, yea verily from the Bering Strait to Baghdad, from New World to New World Order, three clownish cultural guerillas will take you on a rollercoaster ride through the glorious quagmire that is American History.
