The excitement never lets up in this superlative mystery by the "Queen of Crime". Eight guests who have never met each other or their absent hosts are lured and marooned, along with two house servants, in a house on an island off the coast of Devon. A nursery rhyme, hung over the mantel, tells how each of ten "soldiers" met his death until there were none. Each guest is accused by a mysterious voice of having gotten away with murder and then one drops dead - poisoned. One down and nine to go! As statuettes of little soldier boys fall and break one by one, those in the house succumb to a diabolical avenger.

This famous comedy enjoyed one of the longest runs in Broadway history. A vulgar, egotistic junkman, Harry Brock, has come to a swanky hotel in Washington to make crooked deals with government big-wigs. He has brought with him the charming but dumb ex-chorus girl, Billie Dawn. Lacking in social graces, she agrees to be educated by an idealistic magazine reporter, Paul Verrall, who has been investigating political skullduggery and is interested in Brock's activities. As Billie begins to learn about history, politics, and what Harry really is, she rebels against being merely a tool in Brock's crooked schemes to defraud the public.

Cleverly comic, witty, and wise, you'll enjoy this sentimental comedy! Mom and Dad have spent the last thirty years raising three active sons and look forward to the peace, the quiet, and the privacy of a recently emptied nest. Peace? Quiet? Not for long. The empty nest fills up again by the sudden, unexpected arrival of their parents, each with a problem that is dumped on Mom and Dad. Laugh out loud as the couple tries to empty the nest once more - to be alone, hopefully, together again!

Roar with laughter at this ingenious comedy. The first act is comprised of three vignettes that introduce us to three separate couples: a tipsy actress and a bellboy who went to bed the night before, a gutsy Polish woman who has survived World War II and the carpenter whom she chose to father her baby, and an acid-tongued columnist and his cool psychotherapist wife who are about to split up. In the second act, we meet the couples 20, 25 and 30 years later and learn, much to our merriment, how they ended up and how their stories are all linked together.

In this hilarious comedy by the author of Lend Me A Tenor and Moon Over Buffalo, two English Shakespearean actors, Jack and Leo, find themselves so down on their luck that they are performing "Scenes from Shakespeare" on the Moose Lodge circuit in the Amish country of Pennsylvania. When they hear that an old lady in York, PA is about to die and leave her fortune to her two long lost English nephews, they resolve to pass themselves off as her beloved relatives and get the cash. The trouble is, when they get to York, they find out that the relatives aren't nephews, but nieces! Romantic entanglements abound, especially when Leo falls head-over-petticoat in love with the old lady's vivacious niece, Meg, who's engaged to the local minister. Meg knows that there's a wide world out there, but it's not until she meets "Maxine and Stephanie" that she finally gets a taste of it.

The story takes place over one week's time in Greenspot USA. The local school is holding their annual talent show. Consider what happens when you have rivaling homecoming queens, talent acts that need a LOT of work, the teacher in charge of the talent show is actually the algebra teacher, and the only sport Greenspot High excels in is chess. Oh yeah—their mascot is the Chipmunk.
