| | When Henrietta Leavitt begins work at the Harvard Observatory in the early 1900s, she isn’t allowed to touch a telescope or express an original idea. Instead, she joins a group of women “computers,” charting the stars for a renowned astronomer who calculates projects in “girl hours” and has no time for the women’s probing theories. As Henrietta, in her free time, attempts to measure the light and distance of stars, she must also take measure of her life on Earth, trying to balance her dedication to science with family obligations and the possibility of love. The true story of 19th-century astronomer Henrietta Leavitt explores a woman’s place in society during a time of immense scientific discovery and when women’s ideas were dismissed until men claimed credit for them. Social progress, like scientific progress, can be hard to see when one is trapped among earthly complications; Henrietta Leavitt and her female peers believe in both, and their dedication changed the way we understand both the heavens and Earth. | Tickets | |

| | Welcome to Camp Rock — the ultimate camp for aspiring musicians ("Camp Rock Anthem"). Mitchie Torres arrives and greets her friends from last summer ("Brand New Day"). Everyone is welcomed by Camp Rock's founder, Brown Cesario. Mitchie starts off Opening Jam with ("This Is Me") and is joined by Connect 3 front man, Shane Gray, when he arrives with his brothers, Nate and Jason. In spotlight-absorbing fashion, Tess Tyler takes the stage ("Start the Party"). The campers soon receive an invitation to visit the brand new Camp Star, run by Brown's rival and former band mate, Axel Turner. Luke and the Star Campers perform a high-energy number ("Fire"), which overwhelms the Camp Rockers. Axel offers them a spot at Camp Star, and Tess immediately makes arrangements. Brown quickly shuttles the Camp Rockers back home to avoid further defections. Before they leave, Nate becomes smitten with Axel's daughter, Dana, but is too shy to say anything.
Brown informs the campers that most of his staff took Axel's offer, and Camp Rock will have to close immediately. Mitchie, devastated, calls her pals to action ("Can't Back Down"). Brown agrees to let Shane, Nate and Jason take over teaching the classes ("Play My Music"). Bolstered by their progress, the Camp Rockers challenge the Star Campers to a Final Jam showdown ("It's On"). Tess and Axel up the ante and offer to broadcast "Camp Wars" so that viewers can vote for the winner. Brown is furious when he hears about the contest, but the Camp Rockers convince him they can do it. Mitchie starts working on their number and drives everyone to focus. Shane, Nate and Jason try to lighten the mood ("Heart and Soul"), but Mitchie makes everyone get right back to work. Spying from a distance, Tess misses how much fun she used to have at Camp Rock. As Mitchie and Shane fight about not spending time together, Nate sneaks across the lake to sing to Dana all the things that he was too shy to say ("Introducing Me").
The Camp Rockers want to improve their chances by making the Final Jam number a duet between Shane and Mitchie, but they first have to get them back together ("Wouldn't Change a Thing"). Camp Wars arrives and the Star Campers perform a flashy, hi-tech number ("Tear It Down"). Intimidated, the Camp Rockers give it their best ("What We Came Here For"). Everyone's thrilled until they realize that Axel solicited votes outside of the broadcast, and Camp Star is announced as the winner. On the way back to Camp Rock, Brown expresses how proud he is of everyone, even if the camp has to close down ("This Is Our Song"). Suddenly, the phones start ringing from parents who saw the performance and want to send their kids to Camp Rock next summer! Joined now by several Camp Star defectors, including Tess and Dana, the Camp Rockers are thrilled to know they will be back for an even better summer next year ("We Rock")! | Tickets | |

| | The action is set in Truvy’s beauty salon in Chinquapin, Louisiana, where all the ladies who are “anybody” come to have their hair done. Helped by her eager new assistant, Annelle (who is not sure whether or not she is still married), the outspoken, wise-cracking Truvy dispenses shampoos and free advice to the town’s rich curmudgeon, Ouiser, ("I’m not crazy, I’ve just been in a bad mood for forty years"); an eccentric millionaire, Miss Clairee, who has a raging sweet tooth; and the local social leader, M’Lynn, whose daughter, Shelby (the prettiest girl in town), is about to marry a “good ole boy.” Filled with hilarious repartee and not a few acerbic but humorously revealing verbal collisions, the play moves toward tragedy when, in the second act, the spunky Shelby (who is a diabetic) risks pregnancy and forfeits her life. The sudden realization of their mortality affects the others, but also draws on the underlying strength—and love—which give the play, and its characters, the special quality to make them truly touching, funny and marvelously amiable company in good times and bad. | Tickets | |
