Richard III

by William Shakespeare

Richard, Duke of Gloucester, resolves to "prove a villain" as he takes the throne in this tale of intrigue, murder and revenge. Philip Patrone as Richard is charmingly manipulative and dangerousluy deceitful in this dark, daring and dazzling production.

Richard (Phillip Patrone) plots against his sister-in-law, Queen Elizabeth (Sheila Stasack.)	Prince George, Duke of Clarence (Diego Arciniegas) pleads for his life... ...but his brother Richard's hired murderers (Steve Rotolo & Joe Owens) are not to be dissuaded.
Along with Lord Thomas Stanley (Job Emerson), Richard pledges fealty to his elder brother, King Edward IV (Bob Jolly) and his Queen. Sheldon Brown photos

A Little Night Music

Book by Hugh Wheeler

Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondhiem

This lush musicalization of an Imgmar Bergman film is about mid-summer romances. Stephen Sondheim's touching musical of manners is set in the early twentieth century and deals with all the wonderful mistakes we make in love. A nostalgic musical sure to move audiences to laughter and tears, featuring the classic "Send in the Clowns."
