Synopsis of 2026 Plays 

Nunsense directed by Karen Morello. The Order of the Little Sisters of Hoboken take over the church to hold a fundraising variety show to raise money to bury several sisters (who were accidentally poisoned by their cook). They must inter the nuns before the health inspector comes and finds the dead nuns in their freezer! Fraught with hilarity, both Catholic and otherwise, we watch as the nuns try to perform their planned performance amidst chaos and calamity.

Grace & Glorie directed by Lee Padgett. Estelle Parsons and Lucie Arnaz starred on Broadway in this charmer set in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Grace, a feisty 90-year-old cancer patient, has checked herself out of the hospital and returned to her beloved homestead cottage to die alone. Her volunteer hospice worker, Glorie, is a Harvard MBA recently transplanted to this rural backwater from New York. Glorie is tense, unhappy and guilt-ridden, her only child having been killed in an auto accident when she was driving. As she attempts to care for and comfort the cantankerous Grace, the sophisticated Glorie gains new perspectives on values and life's highs and lows.

Twelfth Night directed by Stacy Rabon. Viola, shipwrecked in Illyria, disguises herself as a young man named Cesario and enters the service of Duke Orsino, who is in love with the Countess Olivia. Olivia, in turn, falls for Viola's disguised self, while Viola secretly loves Orsino. Meanwhile, Viola's twin brother, Sebastian, also survives the shipwreck and arrives in Illyria, leading to mistaken identities and romantic complications.

It’s a Wonderful Life directed by Cathryn Thames. In our American culture It's a Wonderful Life has become almost as familiar as Dickens' A Christmas Carol. The story is a natural for a stage adaptation: the saga of George Bailey, the Everyman from the small town of Bedford Falls, whose dreams of escape and adventure have been quashed by family obligation and civic duty, whose guardian angel has to descend on Christmas Eve to save him from despair and to remind him—by showing him what the world would have been like had he never been born—that his has been, after all, a wonderful life. This faithful adaptation has all your favorite characters: George and Mary Hatch, Clarence, Uncle Billy, Violet, and, of course, the Scrooge-like villain, Mr. Potter. This fine dramatization not only celebrates the faith of the season, it also celebrates the American philosophy of life: hard work, fair play and the love and support of one's family and community will be rewarded.
