Without William Shakespeare, we wouldn’t have literary masterpieces like Romeo and Juliet. But without Henry Condell and John Heminges, we would have lost half of Shakespeare’s plays forever! After the death of their friend and mentor, the two actors are determined to compile the First Folio and preserve the words that shaped their lives. They’ll just have to borrow, beg, and band together to get it done. Amidst the noise and color of Elizabethan London, THE BOOK OF WILL finds an unforgettable true story of love, loss, and laughter, and sheds new light on a man you may think you know.

Join us October 9th through 19th for this beautifully written love letter to Shakespeare, to theatre, and to friendship!

We are excited to bring the story of Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley to our stage this holiday season.

A sequel to Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice set two years after the novel ends, Miss Bennet continues the story, only this time with bookish middle-sister Mary as its unlikely heroine. Mary is growing tired of her role as dutiful middle sister in the face of her siblings’ romantic escapades. When the family gathers for Christmas at Pemberley, an unexpected guest sparks Mary’s hopes for independence, an intellectual match, and possibly even love.

“Droll and delicious, MISS BENNET is a charming, confectionary celebration of fan favorite characters from Pride and Prejudice, multi-generationally honoring the legacy of Jane Austen’s humor, playfulness and wit in a warm-spirited holiday theatrical production.”

“…a perfectly constructed love story…Given its fizzy comedy, sweet spirit and clean structure,

[MISS BENNET] seems destined to populate future holiday seasons…”

— San Francisco Chronicle.  

Have you ever feel like a little make-up could turn you into a whole other person ... or a zombie or a monster? Do you love playing with scars, bruises, blood, and all things creepy and crawly? Or, maybe you like the idea of trying something like this, but applying the make-up makes you nervous and uncertain? Then this workshop is for you! Our Stage Make-Up workshop is designed to teach you the basic techniques of application for a variety of styles. Come play with us and learn skills that will make your brush work have folks saying "Ooohh!", or maybe even yelling "AHHHH"!

*Recommended for students age 12+.

Registration is $40.

Class will be held October 25th from 9am-12pm.
