By Agatha Christie
Directed by James Castle
Stevens
Jan 27 - Feb 26
Considered one of the
greatest mysteries of all time, Agatha Christie's novel
Ten Little Indians was adapted into a play called
And Then There Were None. The mystery has ten
people called to a remote house and each one of them
gets killed one by one. Even if you know the key, Christie's
deft process and imagination is always a delight. |

Directed by Gai Jones
April 6 - 29
Ripped from the pages
of Charles Dickens' Oliver Twist, this gritty
musical by Lionel Bart first opened in London in 1960
and soon crossed the Pond to Broadway. Join the underbelly
of Britain in the Three Cripples pub and you will see
the brutal Bill Sikes, comical Fagan and of course the
Artful Dodger. Gai Jones directs with help from Holly
Bassuk and Jeff Wallach (choreography) and Andy Street
as Musical Wizard. |

Brooklyn Boy
By Donald Margulies
Directed by Steve
Grumette
May 18 - June 17
From the fertile mind
of Donald Margulies (Dinner With Friends) comes
"the fun-niest and one of his most moving plays"
when a man who becomes a successful novelist returns
home to Brooklyn to visit his dying father, his family
and friends. Full of irony, wit and wisdom, he tries
to reconnect with them in light of his success and failures.

Sutton
July 13 - Aug 12
This amazing Rodgers
& Hammerstein musical of a family's courage, love
and danger hit all the right notes on Broadway in 1959,
and it's been with us ever since. Based on the inspirational
story by Maria Von Trapp, this Tony Award winning classic
still delights audiences with songs such as "My
Favorite Things", "Climb Every Mountain"
and "A Doe, A Deer ..." The hills of Ojai
will be alive with The Sound of Music this summer! Tracey
Williams Sutton returns to direct our summer special. |

By Jim
Jacobs and Warren Casey
Directed by Jeff
Wallach
Sept 7 - Oct 7
They called them "Greasers"
back in the 1950's as the dawn of rock and roll and
cool changed the post-war culture. At first this musical
by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey was raunchy and raw,
and so a "school version" was written. We're
doing the adult play, but in either case, it takes on
social issues from gangs to the sexual revolution with
Attitude. Jeff Wallach takes on this hugely popular
musical as director ... with Attitude! |
