The Merry Wives of Windsor, Otto Nicolai's comic opera about deception, revenge, and love abounds in glorious music and drama. The Merry Wives of Windsor is an adaptation of Shakespeare's comedy that is an amusing farce whose subject is the eternal battle of the sexes. Falstaff, an aging and portly has-been cavalier who still imagines himself to be something of a "stud muffin," simultaneously courts two married women by using identical love letters. The faithful wives plan to take revenge on the would-be Lothario. Meanwhile, Anna, the young and desirable daughter of Mr. Page, attempts to outwit her parents as they choose whom she shall wed. A richly talented cast, a full orchestra and beautiful period costumes will ensure a sparkling evening of sheer delight for opera novices and aficionados alike. Performed in English.

Dancing at Lughnasa

The second play of the season is the winner of the 1992 Tony Award for Best Play, " Dancing at Lughnasa" by Brian Friel. Playing April 30 – May 25, " Dancing at Lughnasa" is widely regarded as Brian Friel's masterpiece. This extraordinary play is the story of five unmarried sisters, one with a young son, in a small village in Ireland in 1936 who embody the core of the human spirit that cannot be vanquished by time or loss, or fully expressed in language.

It’s a play! It’s a concert! It’s Nunsense meets N-Sync! It’s Altar Boyz, the Catholic boy band on a mission: Matthew, Mark, Luke, Juan & Abraham. They aim to save souls with hot pop songs, glorious voices, and killer choreography. Matthew is the dreamboat leader of the group. Mark is the sensitive one. Luke is the streetwise B-boy who has a little trouble staying on the Path. Juan is the Latin hottie in search of his long-lost parents. And Abraham is Jewish. (What’s he doing in a Christian boy band? God only knows.) They are fierce in their spiritual mission and, though there is much humor resulting from their naïve fervor, they are utterly sincere and their message is all about the power of love, acceptance…and really great hair. Songs: God Put the Rhythm in Me; Girl, You Make Me Want To Wait; La Vida Eterna; Everybody Fits in God’s Great Family.

Performances Thursday-Monday @ 8:00
