ROUGH CROSSING

October 18 thru November 5, 2023

By Tom Stoppard
Directed & Choreographed by Art Manke
Featuring Danny Scheie

From an original play by Ferenc Molnar

A clever and hilarious comedy, rife with Tom Stoppard’s legendary wit. Two established playwrights hoping to refresh their careers take their show on the road. Or, rather, on the high seas, along with their two established stars. The plan is to ride the wake of a brilliant young musician – who happens to be engaged to one of the aforementioned stars – who will compose their new musical. But when the writers and composer stumble across a tryst between the actors, they’ll need to pull out all the stops to keep their young phenom from going overboard.

WHO’S GOT ME?

WORLD PREMIERE

December 6 thru 23, 2023

By Jeffrey Scharf
Directed by Julie James

This 1930s-style show-within-a-show, backstage screwball musical comedy is filled with toe-tapping tunes and dynamic dance sequences.  The fun begins when the Alexanders, a family of small-town cabaret performers, attract the interest of big-time Broadway producer Preston Fadham with their musical comedy about a family of small-town cabaret performers who attract the interest of a big-time Broadway producer. Complications ensue as the lives of the real-life actors intersect with the problems of their on-stage characters.

THE LION IN WINTER

FEBRUARY 7 thru 25, 2024

By James Goldman
Directed by Susan Myer Silton
Featuring Rolf Saxon, Julie James, Shaun Carroll and Andrew Davids

A family feud of imperial proportions. “Well – what shall we hang? The holly or each other?” Set during Christmas 1183, The Lion in Winter tells the wickedly amusing tale of King Henry II, his imprisoned queen (released only for the holiday), and their three entitled sons who vie for the throne in a double-dealing free-for-all of competing ambitions to inherit a kingdom. Best known for the film adaptation starring Peter O’Toole and Katharine Hepburn, this viciously funny drama is a high-stakes chess game where the pieces constantly change sides and no one is spared the sword.

Directed by Paul Mullins
Featuring Many of your favorite Jewel actors

Greeted by the quirky manager, Mrs. Brennen, a variety of guests from around the world pass through a shabby hotel in Ireland, sorting out the baggage of their lives as they spend the night on their way to their next destination.

Back by popular demand, this revival of our 2017 hit production brings you two of Jewel’s most beloved actors who pay tribute to an incredible performer in a true story about Patsy Cline’s friendship with hilarious Houston housewife Louise Seger who befriended the star in a Texas honky-tonk. The two women struck up a friendship that lasted until Cline’s untimely death in a plane crash.

Filled with laughter and song, ALWAYS… PATSY CLINE will celebrate “sweet dreams” come true for Jewel reaching 20 years as well as for Patsy and those who loved her music.
