Helena, a commoner, is desperately in love with the arrogant noble, Bertram, who doesn't love her back. Yet this passionate young woman, "whose beauty did astonish the survey of richest eyes," goes to the ends of the earth to win him. In this seldom seen work of Shakespeare, the bard examines unrequited love, cultural gender roles, and the question of honor; finding in the end that "the web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together."

Meet America's first political maverick, who kicked British butt, shafted the Indians and smacked down the Spaniards all in the name of these United States. This irreverent punk rock musical look at one of our nation's founding rock stars reinvents the life of "Old Hickory," from his humble beginnings to his days as our seventh Commander-in-Chief. It investigates the attraction and terrors of American populism, using a raucous blend of outrageous comedy, anarchic theatricality and really, really tight pants.
Seascape

In Edward Albee's Pulitzer Prize winning play, Charles and Nancy are enjoying a day at the beach, contemplating their impending retirement when they encounter another, quite unusual couple. The foursome proceed to explore life, marriage and the human condition in a very funny and highly thoughtful way that only one of America's greatest living playwrights can achieve. Seascape is Edward Albee "at his most provocative and inventive."
