| The Winslow Boy
by Terence Rattigan
Playing March 7-22
Taken from a true incident in England in 1908, this compelling play is as relevant today as it was when first produced. A young boy is discharged from the Royal Naval College for allegedly stealing a postal order. The boy's father mounts a legal campaign to clear the family name with the rallying cry of "Let right be done!" The resultant notoriety, the financial and emotional loss and pressure it exerts on the entire family, creates a riveting and powerful story.

| Nuts
by Tom Topor
April 3-19
A young woman is facing a charge of manslaughter. Her competence to stand trial must first be determined at a hearing which could keep her in a psychiatric ward forever. Various people – her family, the doctors, and the lawyers – all have a vested interest in the outcome. This play is a provocative and intense indictment of the medical and legal systems. In 1987, Nuts was a movie starring Barbra Streisand and Richard Dreyfuss.
Advisory: Contains strong language and mature content.
