"On The Radio" is a sweet holiday treat for the whole family! In the late 1940's, men are returning home and small-town America is celebrating its first Christmas, post- WWII. A lot of things have changed on the home front, but some things carry on with a steady beat—like Big Band music and the ever hopeful human spirit. Written by local author and original 'Footlighters Junior', Patti Craw Adeff, this season's Bonus Holiday Show combines music and comedy for a warmly nostalgic trip down memory lane.

Tickets are $14 for this performance, $10 for students with ID. We accept payment in cash, by check or by major credit card.

Only Agatha Christie could have conceived such suspense and then capped with an uncanny triple-flip ending! A young married man spends many evenings with a rich old woman. When she is found murdered, he is the chief suspect. The testimony of his wife is expected to result in an acquittal, but she is a shrew who damages his case and all but hangs him before a vindictive mystery woman appears—with letters against the wife! Brilliant twists and turns of plot will keep the audience spellbound.

Tickets are $14 for this performance, $10 for students with ID. We accept payment in cash, by check or by major credit card.

A farce, a medieval romance and a philosophical comedy rolled into one delightful romp! In 470 A.D., England's King Ambrose sends his rambunctious army on a mission to Ireland to gather mammoth rocks, known as the Giant's Dance. At home, while the Queen and Druid Priest arrange celebratory human sacrifices, a Roman Christian prisoner becomes the Princess' bodyguard, and promptly falls in love! Overseeing all the mayhem is Merlin, whose timely magical intervention unites the lovers, punishes the evildoers and makes clear the folly of war.

Tickets are $14 for this performance, $10 for students with ID. We accept payment in cash, by check or by major credit card.

Winner of the Louis B. Mayer Award and created by an American-born playwright/director who has become one of the most celebrated figures of modern British theater, this diabolically clever (and frequently funny) play was first presented as part of the Olympic Arts Festival in Los Angeles and is scheduled for future Broadway presentation. Illuminating aspects of the master sleuth's character heretofore ignored, Sherlock's Last Case is both true to the spirit of the original and a totally fresh and absorbing theater experience.

Tickets are $14 for this performance, $10 for students with ID. We accept payment in cash, by check or by major credit card.
