The Taming of the Shrew is renowned as Shakespeare’s most controversial play. It is a tale of mistaken identity, deception and complicated love triangles. The plot thickens as suitors of the fair Bianca convince a visiting stranger to marry her older sister Katherina in order to allow Bianca to be eligible to be wed. However, Katherina is not a willing participant in their plans.
Reversing the roles in this production brings a fresh perspective to an old yarn, allowing the audience to experience the story from alternative points of view.

Sleuth’s tag line is “think of the perfect crime… then go one step further.” And while not necessarily a crime in the purest sense, John L. Moore’s performance stole the show, overwhelming his co-star, in a play about love, revenge, and the games we play.
Moore’s performance and the story itself are the two defining elements of this entertaining, but flawed, production. The story, centered around two men who have a relationship with one woman—a woman never seen or heard from—deals with the meeting and aftermath of the meeting between the two principals: Andrew Wyke (Moore), a mystery writer and the man seemingly gleefully divorcing the woman in question; and Milo Tindale (Shawn Dyson), the younger paramour who is planning a future with Wyke’s …
An aristocrat with a love for mystery, theatre and strategic games enters into a potentially deadly game of cat-and-mouse with a young, charismatic man-about-town with whom his wife also happens to be having an affair.

Victorious in his wars against the Goths, Roman general Titus Andronicus brings home as his captives Queen Tamora, her lover Aaron, and her three sons. Ignoring Tamora’s pleas, Titus hands over her eldest son for sacrifice—thus setting in motion a relentless cycle of revenge as horrific as it is grotesque. The most shocking play in Shakespeare’s canon—an extraordinary fusion of the savage and the sublime!
Presenting this play in a Theatre in Round blackbox setting provides the audience with the feeling of being more than observers in this web of politics and betrayal.

The play takes place in Victorian England and tells the story of Dr. Henry Jekyll, a scientist and prominent physician who dabbles with the macabre and discovers secrets that were better left buried. The character of Elizabeth was not in the original story, but adds a romantic element to the characters that makes them more dimensional.

In the late 19th century, a young English lawyer by the name of Jonathan Harker is sent to eastern Europe by his London law firm to complete what should have been a simple transaction for a transfer of real estate.

As the Count travels to England to seek out new hunting ground, Jonathan enlists the help of his wife, his friends Quincey Morris and Dr. John Seward, and the expertise of the infamous Professor Abraham Van Helsing to join him in a quest to eradicate the monster.
