Petruchio has come to Padua wife-hunting, and the object of his eye is none other than Katherina, also known as Kate the Curst—whom he vows to tame. Thus begins one of Shakespeare’s most popular romantic farces; and the clash of an (almost) irresistible force with a (nearly) immovable object produces explosive (and madcap) results in this bold and fresh look at the battle of the sexes.

Arnolphe has trained Agnes since childhood to be his wife, teaching her only to sew, pray, and serve him. But as their wedding approaches his plan goes ridiculously awry: Agnes is so innocent she doesn’t know better than to fall in love—with someone else. A frothy, hilarious take on love and marriage, this classic farce will tickle every funny bone in your body.

Brimming with incredible passion and anguish, as well as very human tenderness, this powerful and tragic story of jealousy will lure you to the edge of Iago’s shadowy world.

One of the most beloved plays in history, this musical has touched audiences for nearly fifty years with its humor, passion, warmth, and honesty.

Expert swordsman, eloquent poet, and eligible bachelor, Cyrano shies away form wooing Roxane because his overly-large nose masks the beauty of his soul. Instead, he helps his bumbling young friend, Christian, court her by writing entrancing poetry for the young man to recite. This timeless love story will inspire your emotions as these three characters (and you) discover the soul beneath the words and the heart behind the bravado.

A free-spirited and engaging comedy for anyone who has ever been in love, this youthful indulgence is replete with love-smitten (and confused) men, cunning (and disguised) maidens, and the most likable and ill-mannered canine ever to grace the stage. Valentine and Proteus, the two gents in question, prove that Romeo is not the only lad in Verona to feel the raptures of love!

While Jack is out on the town each evening, his wife, Bela, stays home alone. Believing she’s losing her mind, she can’t explain the disappearance of familiar objects, the mysterious footsteps overhead, or the ghostly flickering of living room gaslights whenever her husband is gone. The suspenseful and dark Victorian melodrama will surprise you and have you holding your breath at every creaking floor and every flickering lamp.

The noble Brutus finds himself on the horns of a dilemma. Is he being swayed by the self-serving plots of political opportunists, or does Caesar, the man who has loved him as a son, really intend to see himself crowned an emperor? The heavens are troubled, nightmares portend war, and an air of impending doom pervades the Roman state.
