Always.Patsy Cline
Based on a true story
Conceived and Written By
Ted Swingley

September 11, and 16, 17 & 18, 2010

Always...Patsy Cline is a musical based on the true story of Patsy Cline's friendship with Houston housewife, Louise Seger. In 1961 when Cline went to Houston for a show, Seger and friends arrived early and, by coincidence, met Cline who was traveling alone. The two women struck up a friendship--a friendship that lasted until Cline's untimely death in a plane crash in 1963.

"Always...Patsy Cline. Always a hit."

Last of the Red Hot Lovers
By Neil Simon

February 5, and 10, 11, & 12, 2011

Last of the Red Hot Lovers. Middle-aged and married, overworked and overweight, Barney Cashman wants to join the sexual revolution before it's too late and arranges three seductions: Elaine Navazio proves to be a foul-mouthed bundle of neuroses; Bobbi Michele, a 20-ish actress who's too kooky by half; and Jeanette Fisher, a gloomy, depressed housewife who happens to be married to Barney's best friend

"Delightfully hilarious and witty as well as filled with wisdom about human nature... a genuinely brilliant play."
- New York Post

Directed by Vicki Hooper

The Last Night of Ballyhoo
By Alfred Uhry

May 7, and 12, 13, & 14, 2011

The Last Night of Ballyhoo takes place in Atlanta , Georgia , in December of 1939. Gone with the Wind is having its world premiere, and Hitler is invading Poland , but Atlanta 's elitist German Jews are much more concerned with who is going to Ballyhoo, the social event of the season. The family gets pulled apart and then mended together with plenty of comedy, romance and revelations along the way.

Winner of the '97 Tony Award for Best Play.

"Everything falls into place in this.winning new play.wonderfully crafted script."
- Variety.
