| | Switchermoo A Cosmic Cow Caper
by Timothy Stammeyer
You’ve heard of a cow jumping over the moon, but what about an alien cow who produces green milk?
In this delightfully silly ensemble comedy (with no role larger than 45 lines!), aliens intercept a signal from Earth about the most prestigious prize on the planet — a county fair blue ribbon. They decide to enter their cow in the fair’s Best Cow contest so they can be the talk of the solar system. After landing on Earth on the Oxen Rutabaga Farm, they are discovered by a young girl named Maisy. In the hysterical confusion of meeting a human, the aliens accidentally switch their cow for Maisy’s cow, Daisy Belle. With the fast-approaching contest, the aliens and humans both plot to switch back the bovines. Complicating matters is a simple-minded detective, Lt. Applebottom, and his team of alien catchers — who are really the police station custodians. Will the cows get switched back in time? Will Lt. Applebottom catch the aliens? And how do grilled cheese sandwiches become a peace offering?

| | Cabaret
Book by Joe Masteroff
Based on the play by John Van Druten and stories by Christopher Isherwood.
Music by John Kander
Lyrics by Fred Ebb
In a Berlin nightclub, as the 1920’s draw to a close, a garish Master of Ceremonies welcomes the audience and assures them they will forget all their troubles at the Cabaret. With the Emcee’s bawdy songs as wry commentary, Cabaret explores the dark, heady, and tumultuous life of Berlin’s natives and expatriates as Germany slowly yields to the emerging Third Reich. Cliff, a young American writer newly arrived in Berlin, is immediately taken with English singer Sally Bowles. Meanwhile, Fräulein Schneider, proprietor of Cliff and Sally’s boarding house, tentatively begins a romance with Herr Schultz, a mild-mannered fruit seller who happens to be Jewish. Musical numbers include “Willkommen,” “Cabaret,” “Don’t Tell Mama” and “Two Ladies.”

| | A Rock Sails By by Sean Grennan
Astrophysicist Dr. Lynn Cummings has always believed in science over faith in the unknown. But now that her life is changing, the certainty that was once a source of comfort has become a source of emptiness. When an unidentified flying object is sighted heading toward Earth, she grants an interview to a journalist who misquotes her. With her credibility on the line, she invites him to witness the object as it comes closest to the Earth with her. Dr. Cummings hopes it will pass without incident, but there is no telling what she will discover beyond the stars.

Romeo and Juliet or The Old "You-Know-I-Really-Love-You-But-My-Father-Really-Hates-You" Blues
By Nancy Linehan Charles. From William Shakespeare
Teenagers. What are ya gonna do. They fall in love at the drop of a hat—always with the very person Mom and Dad can't stand. And in the case of Romeo Montague and Juliette Capulet, their families have hated one another for as long as anyone can remember. Except …no one actually remembers why. Grownups act that way sometimes, huh. This fast-paced adaptation of Shakespeare's play tracks the star-crossed lovers and their cross-purposed families through the tumbling courtship to its tragic conclusion—storytellers firing off comments about premature marriages and the folly of old men at war. A perfect landscape for boisterous swordfights and gender-bending casting. Girls play boys with pointed reminders to the audience of all-male casting in Elizabethan times. Payback, say the storytellers. The audience is prodded to stop the tragedy at several points, but alas, too late. The conclusion? Violence is a stupid choice so mend your fences before you hit the parking lot.
