— It's such a fine line between a good man, and a bad —
Convinced that the cure for his father's mental illness lies in the separation of Man's evil nature from his good, Dr. Henry Jeckyll unwittingly unleashes his own dark side, wreaking havoc in the streets of late 19th century London as the savage, maniacal Edward Hyde. Based on a Robert Louis Stevenson novel, it's a story that contains thrills perfectly suited for this Halloween weekend.

One Stage. Three bedrooms. Four couples....and one of them won't go home! Trevor and Susannah are having marital problems. Instead of working it out at home, one eventful Saturday night they traipse through the bedrooms of friends, family, and ex-lovers, seeking company, comfort, and advice. Needless to say, no one is getting any sleep! Don't miss this delightful show the NEW YORK TIMES called one of Ayckbourn's "sunniest, funniest comedies."

Arthur Miller's timeless tale of truth on trial.
"The Crucible" is a fictionalized account of accusations of witchcraft based on historical events that took place in Salem in 1692. This classic play is a stunning exploration of jealousy, lust, mistrust, rumor mongering, religious fanaticism, and the arrogance of power. It won the Tony Award for best play in 1953, at the height of the Senator McCarthy "witch hunt" for communists within the arts and government. By turns infuriating, horrifying, heartbreaking, and inspiring, this is truly one of the masterworks of the American stage.
Arthur Miller passed away in February, 2005. He was 89.
