Mediocrity battles genius in this Tony award-winning play. Set amidst the opulence and splendor of 18th century Vienna, Peter Shaffer’s thrilling, and often wickedly funny play shows us the extremes of human ambition and heavenly genius. Amadeus pits the composer with God's gift and the Devil's audacity against the composer with God's pity and the Devil's vengeance. |
AMADEUS
by Peter Shaffer |

Hotel Paradiso tells the story of the comic horrors encountered by two neighbors trying to cheat on their spouses at a disreputable French hotel. Their way is soon blocked by a crew of delightfully silly guests who stumble, stagger and sprint through the seedy hotel in a carnival of narrow escapes, slammed doors and mistaken identities.
Amorousness hides in closets, under beds, behind curtains, anywhere that the lover flees on hearing the phrase: "Heavens, it’s my husband!” |

We not only gave you your FIRST choice in the balloting, we decided to give you your SECOND choice as well.
This is a rousing comedy about a man trying to get away from a difficult personal life by hiding out in a Southern hunting lodge. THE FOREIGNER is a comic farce complete with surprising plot twists, mistaken identities, evil villains, and innocent damsels. "A Blast of Hilarity" says the Washigton Times. |

"The lies begin when you lift the pen", is a line that comes up early on in "Fiction", Steven Dietz' witty, literate examination of the secrets we keep from even those we trust the most. Married authors read each others’ diaries and notebooks and discover secret lives. Is it better to die with a secret than to live with one? |
FICTION
by Stephen Dietz |
|
|
A mystery about a murder in a small town and the community theatre production of Saint Joan that drives its principal actress to try and solve it. Book Of Days gathers up religion, truth, and even Joan of Arc and creates a fascinating play that has facile plots, twists, and turns. |
BOOK OF DAYS
