Based on Victor Hugo’s classic novel, this majestic saga will be brought to life before your eyes…the teeming streets of Paris, the fearless students at the barricade, the desperate love that may not survive the battle. And in the center of it all, fugitive Jean Valjean, pitted against the self-righteous Inspector Javert, in a lifelong struggle to evade capture.

NUNSENSE

Full of Nunstop, Habit-forming fun!

When tainted vichyssoise prepared by Sister Julia, Child of God, sends 54 of the 59 Sisters of Hoboken to meet their maker, the remaining five sisters decide there’s just one thing to do. Put on a show! It’s all to raise money to bury the last of their dear departed sisters. But will Sister Mary Amnesia remember her lines? Can Sister Mary Robert sing
soul as well as she saves one? Full of outrageously righteous songs, non-stop laughter (Catechism not required!) and rosary-swinging dance numbers, this is one show that could only come from divine inspiration. It’s been a comedy classic for over 20 years and a hit in 26 countries…you don’t want to miss it!

THE FULL MONTY

July 16 - Sept 21

Nominated for 10 Tony® Awards including best musical!

This heart-warming comedy centers around six out of work and out of shape steel workers. Jerry, Dave and their buddies all desperately need money. So they hatch a scheme to put on a show when they see the enthusiasm the local gals have for the male strippers who have come to town. But Jerry realizes that they will have to offer something “different,” like going “The Full Monty!” Will they triumph over their fears, their nerves and their zippers? Filled with “razor-sharp humor” and toe-tapping pizzazz, this is a one-of-a-kind musical that bares its soul to reveal its heart.

Due to strong language and subject material, recommended for mature audiences only.
