Days before Christmas, George’s boss at Hammerschidt’s Parfumerie fires him after mistakenly suspecting him to be the lover of his unfaithful wife. Meanwhile, George’s own love life goes awry when he discovers that the stranger he has fallen in love with through a secret correspondence is none other than Amalia Balash, a co-worker with whom he constantly feuds. For the employees of the Parfumerie, only the truth can lead to a happy resolution in this old-fashioned, romantic Christmas tale. This version of the story was adapted by E.P. Dowdall from the play Parfumerie, originally written by his uncle Miklós László. This is the original play that the Musical She Loves Me and the movies, The Little Shop Around the Corner and You’ve Got Mail spun off from.

Get ready to set sail with your favorite Old Broads. Yes… they’re back again and ready for a Sassy Senior’s cruise to the Bahamas.

Wedding bells are ringing for Sam and Imogene… maybe. And Eaddy… well… she just wants to know what all the fuss is about up on the topless sun deck. Throw in a murder mystery, a fabulous drag queen and a crazy costume party, and you’re in for a laugh-a-minute, side-splitting laugh-out-loud night of fun. (source: Concord Theatricals)

Directed by Tatum Moss
Produced by Maureen Rogers

Playwright Steven Dietz breathes new life into one of literature’s most famous undead – and the legend of Dracula appears on stage with potent majesty. The seductive, scary and tragic soul of Stoker’s beloved novel is told through faithful dialogue and moving theatricality – which can be adapted for stages large and small. This new adaptation restores the suspense and seduction of Bram Stoker’s classic novel to the stage.As Count Dracula begins to exert his will upon the residents of London, they try to piece together the clues of his appearances in a valiant attempt to save themselves from a hideous fate. Rich with both sensuality and horror, this play paints a wickedly theatrical picture of Stoker’s famous vampire.
