October 3-November 8, 2009 The Unexpected Guest
by Agatha Christie
In dense fog near the South Welsh coastline, a stranger runs his car into a ditch and arrives at a nearby house. Inside, he finds the murdered body of a former big-game hunter. The dead man's wife is near the body with a gun in her hand. Is she guilty or is she protecting someone? Appearances are sure to deceive in this twisty mystery!!
November 14, 2009-January 4, 2010 A Tuna Christmas
by Jaston Williams, Joe Sears, and Ed Howard
In this hilarious sequel to Greater Tuna, it's Christmas in the third smallest town in Texas. Many colorful Tuna denizens, some you will recognize from Greater Tuna and some appearing here for the first time, join in the holiday fun. A Tuna Christmas is a total delight, performed by two quick changing comedians. "A hoot!"-NY Times
"So funny it could make a racoon laugh affectionately at Davy Crockett.... It's far too good for just Christmas."-NY Post "The hilarity ... never lets up."-Village Voice
January 9-February 14, 2010 ThClean House by Sarah Ruhle
Runner-up for the Pulitzer Prize in 2005. The play takes place in Connecticut, where married doctors employ a Brazilian housekeeper who is more interested in coming up with the perfect joke than cleaning. Trouble erupts when the husband falls in love with one of his patients. This theatrical and wildly funny look at class, comedy and the nature of love gives new meaning to the phrase, "I almost died laughing".
"Fresh, funny ... a memorable play, imbued with a comforting philosophy: that the messes and disappointments of life are as much a part of its beauty as romantic love and chocolate ice cream, and a perfect punch line can be as sublime as the most wrenchingly lovely aria." — NY Times. "Casts a spell that had me hooked." — NY Daily News.
February 20-March 28, 2010 Wife Begins at Forty
by Arne Sultan, Earl Barret and Ray Cooney
A wildly zany and hilarious romp from Ray Cooney -- the author of "Funny Money", "Caught in the Net" and "Run for Your Wife!" It's a laugh a minute when an almost-40 housewife fans the flames of passion with her mild mannered ordinary husband. Clever, crazy and tons of fun -- a fine example of what has made Ray Cooney one of the most successful and widely produced playwrights in the world.
April 3-May 2, 2010 Picnic
by William Inge
In this classic winning love story, what starts as neighborhood picnic to celebrate the end of another run-of-the-mill Summer turns into a life-changing twenty-four hours for a group of women in a small, mid-western town. Picnic won William Inge the Pulitzer Prize, The Drama Critic Circle Award, The Outer Circle Award, and The Theatre Club Award.
May 8-June 13, 2010 What the Butler Saw
by Joe Orton
A madcap romp of mistaken identity, gender confusion, and naughty intrigue. Forbidden trysts, a web of lies, and a government inquisition highlight this classic farce.
"Hilarious, outrageous... It dazzles!... Wonderfully verbal, toying with words as if they were firecrackers." N.Y. Times. "Brilliant, witty, the funniest show so far this season." NBC TV. "Madly antic humor." AP . "Hilarious.... Joe Orton's best comedy." CBS.
