Directed by
PAUL
WICKLINE
Let the
music and theatre departments transport
you to a magical, wonderful world in
this new musical comedy that was the
darling of the 2006 Tony Awards. The
hilarious family‐friendly
show‐within‐a‐show begins when a
die‐hard musical fan plays his favorite
cast album, a 1928 smash hit called “The
Drowsy Chaperone” and the show magically
bursts to life.
Audiences
are instantly immersed in the glamorous,
hilarious tale of a celebrity bride and
her uproarious wedding day, complete
with thrills and surprises that take
both the cast and the audience soaring
into the rafters. Don’t miss the show
critics announced as “delightful and
sparkling entertainment!”
“You’re unlikely to have as funny an
evening of theater this season as you
will at this hilarious, side‐splitting
show.” Jeffrey Lyons, WNBC TV
“INGENIOUS! Few productions have ever
pulled an audience so immediately and
unconditionally on their side.” Ben
Brantley, The New York Times
“CLEVER, GLEEFUL and INTELLIGENT!” John
Lahr, The New Yorker

In Arabia
We’d All Be Kings
by Stephen
Adly Guirgis
Directed
by
STEPHEN WHELAN
A
rich character study of
down‐on‐their‐luck individuals,
In Arabia
We’d All Be Kings
is set amidst the
backdrop of New York City’s
gentrification in the 90′s and
offers a bleak look into the lives
of those being displaced.
Originally written by Stephen Adly
Guirgis and directed by Philip Seymour
Hoffman, this play centers around one
bar in Hell’s Kitchen where a motley
crew of down and out characters gather
to drown their sorrows.
This
production contains graphic language and
adult situations and is recommended for
mature audiences only. Parental
discretion is advised for children under
13. Children under the age of 5 are not
allowed in the theater.
According
to Variety, “the play underscores the
tragic truth that the human psyche
yearns for
stability and will eventually accept any
remnant of it that can be found.”

The
Heidi Chronicles
by Wendy Wasserstein
Directed
by
RANDEE TRABITZ
Wendy
Wasserstein’s 1989 Tony Award and
Pulitzer Prize‐winning play chronicles
the glory days of the feminist movement
through the character of art historian
Heidi Holland. Over a 25‐year period ‐‐
from high‐school in the mid‐sixties
through the “having‐it‐all” era of the
late eighties ‐‐ the experiences of
Heidi and her friends and lovers chart
the transformative political and social
changes of that exhilarating period.
This
production contains profanity and adult
situations and is recommended for mature
audiences only.
Parental discretion is advised for
children under 13. Children under the
age of 5 are not allowed in the theater.
The
New York Times critic Mel Gussow wrote
of the Playwrights Horizon production:
"Ms. Wasserstein has always been a
clever writer of comedy. This time she
has been exceedingly watchful about not
settling for easy laughter, and the
result is a more penetrating play. This
is not to suggest, however, that
The
Heidi Chronicles
is ever
lacking in humor."
AUDITIONS: February 6 & 7 @ 6:30 PM in

Equus
by Peter
Shaffer
Directed
by JOHN
DEMITA
Equus
chronicles the disturbing
details of a young man who by all
accounts seems to be a normal teenager
with a passion for horses. But on the
inside, he harbors something very dark.
Dr.
Martin Dysart, a psychiatrist, is
confronted with Alan Strang, a boy who
has blinded six horses in a violent fit
of passion. This very passion is as
foreign to Dysart as the act itself. To
the boy's parents it is a hideous
mystery; Alan has always adored horses.
To Dysart it is a psychological puzzle
that leads both doctor and patient to a
complex and disturbingly dramatic
confrontation. This powerful,
controversial play was an international
success and reached new acclaim in
London and on Broadway when revived in
2008.
Equus
is a
Tony award winning drama that raises
thought‐provoking issues and will leave
the audience deep in thought even after
the production has ended.
Recommended
for mature audiences due to nudity,
profanity and adult content. Parental
discretion is advised for children under
13. Children under the age of 5 are not
allowed in the theater.
