All My Sons by
Arthur Miller, Directed
by Duff Taylor |
|
War was still fresh in American minds when
Arthur Miller had his first real Broadway
success in 1947 with All My Sons. Two
business partners making airplane parts for
the military are charged and tried for
selling faulty parts that result in the
death of soldiers. One goes to prison; one
makes a fortune, convincing himself that he
did it for his family. A powerful tale of
greed, power and self-justification. |

Into the Woods by Stephen Sondheim, music and lyrics, Directed by
Wayne Maples, Music Director George Mann |
| This award
winning musical was based on the Brothers
Grimm Fairy Tales and a book by James Lapine.
But while Disney sanitized fairy tales, the
creators of this imaginative work did not.
Stories of Cinderella, Rapunzel and Jack (of
beanstalk fame) are woven into an original
story of a baker, his wife and a witch. Come
be enchanted by Sondheim’s great music and
Lapine’s tall tales. |
