Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
March 27 - April 8, 2007
Based on the popular 1988 MGM film, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
centers on
two con men living on the French Riviera – the suave and
sophisticated Lawrence Jameson, who makes his lavish living by
talking rich ladies out of their money; and a small-time crook named
Freddy Benson, who, more humbly, swindles women by waking their
compassion with fabricated stories about his grandmother's failing
health. After meeting on a train, they unsuccessfully attempt to
work together only to find that this small French town isn't big
enough for the two of them. So they make a bet: the first one to
swindle $50,000 from a young heiress, triumphs and the other must
leave town. What follows are a series of schemes, masquerades and
double-crosses in which nothing may ever be exactly what it seems.

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
May 8 - 20, 2007
In the Tony-Award winning new musical comedy The 25th Annual
Putnam County Spelling Bee, six young people in the throes of
puberty, overseen by grown-ups who barely managed to escape
childhood themselves, learn that winning isn't everything and that
losing doesn't necessarily make you a loser. Spelling Bee has
been hailed by the Wall Street Journal as "perfect in every possible
way – that rarity of rarities, a super-smart musical that is also a
bona fide crowd pleaser." This tuneful, offbeat and at times
heartwarming show offers audience members the opportunity (strictly
voluntary) to become part of the action as on-stage spellers. The
New York Times calls Spelling Bee "irresistible, riotously
funny and remarkably ingenious – gold stars all around."
