A non-stop physical comedy that turns the world of theater on its head! A cast of has-been actors plan to revive their careers in “Drop Dead!,” a murder mystery directed by “Wonder Child of the Broadway Stage” Victor Le Pewe. At the dress rehearsal the set falls apart around them, props break, and the producer and an actor are murdered. But the show must go on! And so it does, but at the opening night performance, the murders continue and the play goes incredibly wrong. The remaining thespians must save the show and their careers, solve the mystery, and somehow survive until the curtain calls.

Lady Windemere's Fan 
by Oscar Wilde   
Directed by Gary Zaro

CPA – April 4, 5, 11, 12 @ 7:00pm and 6, 13 @ 2:00pm

Mistaken identity, willful misdirection, romantic suspicions and scandalous secrets comprise the comedic capers of “Lady Windermere's Fan.” The first of Oscar Wilde’s social comedies, “Lady Windermere’s Fan” combines shrewd satire of Victorian high society with amusing and intelligent dialogue that distinguishes Wilde as the self-proclaimed ''lord of language.''  First presented in London in 1892, the comedy pokes fun of the social expectations of Victorian England's upper crust and pushes the envelope of “proper” social norms.
