  1. A Partridge In A Palm Tree

    A Partridge In A Palm Tree
    12/9 @ 7pm12/10 @ 3pm12/10 @ 7pm 

    It's Christmas Eve. The Partridge family can't wait to fly south for the holidays . . .that is, until they find themselves snowed in at the airport! Poor Jenny Partridge is forced to endure more than the usual family torture: a mother who can't cook to save her life, an embarrassing dad who thinks he's James Bond, and an incredibly annoying little brother whose sole goal in life is to drive people crazy.

    Now she has to deal with love-struck Kevin Schneider, the boy who's been writing her love poems since kindergarten; an overzealous but lovable security guard with an itchy trigger finger; a grouchy old airline manager, ironically named Mr. Smiley; and (horror of all horrors) Kevin's dictatorial mother, who is determined to Martha Stewart-ize the entire airport . . .and everyone in it!

    But somewhere amidst the "Tannen-bomb" threats, poisonous strudel, marriage proposals, and full-body tackles, Jenny and her family and friends discover that Christmas isn't about where you are; it's about the people you're with.

  1. Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some!)

    Every Christmas Story Every Told (And Then Some!)

    Instead of performing Charles Dickens' beloved holiday classic for the umpteenth time, three actors decide to perform every Christmas story ever told -- plus Christmas traditions from around the world, seasonal icons from ancient times to topical pop-culture, and every carol ever sung.

    A madcap romp through the holiday season!

  1. Twelve Angry Men

    Twelve Angry Men

    A 19-year-old man has just stood trial for the fatal stabbing of his father. "He doesn't stand a chance," mutters the guard as the 12 jurors are taken into the bleak jury room. It looks like an open-and-shut case—until one of the jurors begins opening the others' eyes to the facts.

    "This is a remarkable thing about democracy," says the foreign-born juror, "that we are notified by mail to come down to this place—and decide on the guilt or innocence of a man; of a man we have not known before. We have nothing to gain or lose by our verdict. We should not make it a personal thing."

    But personal it does become, with each juror revealing his or her own character as the various testimonies are re-examined, the murder is re-enacted and a new murder threat is born before their eyes! Tempers get short, arguments grow heated, and the jurors become 12 angry men.
