ELEEMOSYNARY
Production Dates:
5/23 & 3/24
8 pm
Synopsis: Sensitive and
probing, this masterful play examines the subtle
and often perilous relationship between three
generations of remarkable women: the
grandmother, Dorothea, who has sought to assert
her independence through strong-willed
eccentricity; her brilliant daughter, Artie, who
has fled the stifling domination of her mother;
and Artie's daughter, Echo, a child of
exceptional intellect, whom Artie has abandoned
to an upbringing by Dorothea.
|
 |
|
Eleemosynary has been called
"alternatively funny and poignant" by Variety,
and "a funny, perceptive and eloquently written
play'' by the St. Paul Pioneer Press. |

Synopsis:
Audiences will be transported to a lovely French provincial town where the beautiful
Belle lives with her father – a dotty inventor. When her father doesn’t return from a
trip to the local fair, Belle rushes off to find him.
|
 |
|
To her dismay, she discovers he is being held captive in an old castle by a horrible
beast. She trades her freedom for his and the “tale as old as time” begins.
How Belle tames the unfortunate Beast and his ultimate transformation into a handsome
prince continues to enthrall audiences on Broadway nightly.
In an unprecedented move,
Disney has allowed MTI to license stage performances of the show to its customers while
the show continues to play in New York. Filled with spectacular costume and set
opportunities, or even more simply staged, Disney’s Beauty & The Beast offers
a great opportunity to bring your entire community together for family theatre at its best.

COME BLOW YOUR HORN
Production Dates:
9/5, 9/6, 9/7
9/12, 9/13, 9/14
9/19, 9/20, 9/21
Synopsis:
This fresh and delightful comedy was the surprise hit of the New York season. Harry Baker,
owner of the largest artificial fruit business in the east, is the father of two sons.
|
 |
|
One is a 33 year old playboy; the other a different, 21 year
old with an urge to assert himself. These two are
continually trying their father's easily abused patience.
Alan works only two days a week and goes on skiing or
golfing jaunts with attractive female companions the other
five. Buddy, hitherto an obedient son who even kissed
Aunt Gussie through her veil at Dad's request, has moved
into Alan's bachelor apartment, leaving a rebellious letter
by way of explanation. The richly comic complications that
ensue are unfailingly inventive and arise out of character,
are never mere gags.

THE MIRACLE WORKER
Production Dates:
10/10, 10/11, 10/12
10/17, 10/18, 10/19
10/24, 10/25, 10/26
Synopsis:
This stirring dramatization of the story of
Helen Keller is one of the most successful and warmly
admired plays of the modern stage. Blind and mute, and
nobody knows what Helen's fate might have been had she not
come under the tutelage of Annie Sullivan, an Irish girl who
had been born blind.
|
|
|
The Miracle Worker is principally concerned with the
emotional relationship between the lonely teacher and her
blind charge. Little Helen, trapped in her secret world, is
bitter, violent, spoiled and almost animal like. Only Annie
realizes that there is a mind waiting to be rescued from
that dark, tortured silence. Annie's success with Helen
comes only after some of the most turbulent, violent, and
emotion packed scenes ever presented on the stage. |
