Book and Lyrics by Jim Eiler

Directed by Bill Kaufman
Fee. Fi. Fo. Fum. We smell another wonderful Prince Street Players' musical fairytale brought to life by BCP! Jack and his adventures in the sky are given a splendid spin in this family-friendly musical adaptation of the classic story, featuring one very scientifically-minded Giant who has invented a plucky Golden Harp and a tap dancing Golden Goose.Will your child (or grandchild) ages three through ten be able to figure out the mystery of this story? Whatever you do, don't spill the BEANS!

| | Church & State
Written by Jason Odell Williams
Directed by Carol Fisher
A fast-paced, seriously funny take on faith, politics, and "The Twitter". It's three days before Charlie Whitmore's Senate reelection, and he's decided to tell the public exactly what's on his mind, with no filter. What is he going to say, and what could possibly go wrong? Playwright Williams "avoids demonizing his conservative Southerners, who are winning, strikingly intelligent, and above all, sincere in their beliefs .... The moral struggle that follows fuels a sophisticated dialectic that presents both sides of the gun debate.... It's surprisingly subtle and gripping entertainment. Simply superb!" LA TIMES

| | Veronica's Room
Written by Ira Levin
Directed by Ellyn Essig
In typical Ira Levin fashion (Rosemary's Baby, Deathtrap, The Stepford Wives, The Boys from Brazil), the plot features numerous twists and turns encircled by a sensation of supernatural mystery. False identities, time periods crossed, murder, incest, a woman driven toward insanity by others... if you're looking for creepy, you've found the right place! "Bring a seatbelt - the theatre doesn't provide them, and given the whirlwind you're sitting in, you might feel safer strapped in." BROADWAY WORLD

| | A Streetcar Named Desire
Written by Tennessee Williams
Directed by Jacqueline Poquette
In Tennessee Williams' most famous (and successful) play, faded Southern belle Blanche DuBois makes her way to New Orleans to stay with her sister and crass brother-in-law, Stanley Kowalski. Why did she leave her mansion home back in Mississippi? Did she break the law? Cause a scandal? And which sister really causes Stanley to bellow the most famous single name ever heard on stage: "STELL-A!"? "The play is written with a triumphantly heightened naturalism, in which the rhythms and images of ordinary life are subtly combined and contrasted with a verselike elegance of phrase." THE NEW REPUBLIC
March 23 – April 13, 2019

| | Rumors
Written by Neil Simon
Directed by Peter Colletto
Neil Simon returned to laugh-out-loud comedy in this 1988 farce which finds us at a dinner party in which the first guests discover the hostess is missing and the host upstairs with a superficial gunshot wound. To prevent a scandal, the first couple hides this situation from the second, and they hide it from the third, all the way down the line. Filled with half-prepared meals, car accidents, marital affairs, slapstick pratfalls, back spasms, mistaken identities and illogical alibis...and that's just Act One! These hilarious rumor-based circumstances provide an evening that is "...loud, raucous, fast-paced, witty and pretty much over the top from curtain to curtain." NEWS TRIBUNE
May 4 – June 2, 2019
Fridays/Saturdays at 8pm ($21)
Sundays at 2pm ($17)

And speaking of the author, did you know that besides being a prolific writer and producer, Murray Schisgal is perhaps best known as the co-author of the film Tootsie?
