THE FALL REPERTORY
Performed at the Hanna Theater

Shakespeare´s Towering Tragedy
Macbeth

In a maelstrom of politics and magic, Shakespeare’s masterpiece melds unforgettable characters and incomparable language in a fascinating drama of corruption and heroism. We dare you to join us for an eerie evening of dazzling drama, where specters and riddles foretell the futures of kings. But beware, “something wicked this way comes.”

An Enchanting Musical Journey
Into the Woods

Meet a bewitching collection of classic fairy tale characters as they romp through a “once upon a time” kingdom in Broadway’s most magical musical. A toe-tapping tapestry of wonderfully woven fables that brims with award-winning music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, this fractured fairy tale will transport you to a land where there still are giants in the sky, big bad wolves in the woods, curses reversed and “happily ever afters.”

THE HOLIDAY TRADITION (november 28-december 23, 2008)
performed at the Ohio Theatre

The 20th Anniversary Production of Northeast Ohio’s Favorite Holiday Tradition
A Christmas Carol

Open your heart to Charles Dickens’ classic tale of one man’s ultimate redemption. One of Northeast Ohio’s favorite holiday traditions, A Christmas Carol is a perfect gift of theater for children and adults of all ages. Celebrate the season with the ones you love.

THE SPRING REPERTORY (march 25-may 3, 2009)
performed at the Hanna Theatre

A Double Dose of Laughter
Comedy of Errors

Double your pleasure with a fantastic Shakespearean farce. When two twin brothers and their two twin servants are unexpectedly reunited after three decades apart, the unsuspecting port of Syracuse is torn apart at its seams. With a zany cast of unforgettable characters and a myriad of mistaken identities, Shakespeare’s greatest comedy delivers triumphantly on its famous title.

A Soaring Classic
The Seagull

A melancholy masterwork by a revolutionary Russian dramatist, The Seagull soars. Generations collide and dreams are deferred in a powerful classic that subtly dissects the affairs of the human heart and the demands of a life in the arts, effortlessly balancing the comic, the lyric and the tragic in a fashion that has become the hallmark of playwright Anton Chekhov’s enduring art.
