Vintage Hitchcock: A Live Radio Play
June 27-28, 30 - July 2
By Joe Landry
Master of suspense Alfred Hitchcock wrote and directed some of the most gripping psychological
thrillers in the history of cinema. Before the days of digital special
effects, Hitchcock used innovative camera angles and framing, along with ominous musical
underscoring, to create a sense of escalating danger and the surreal. In this way,
much of the action takes place in the mind of the viewer, rather than on the screen.
So what could be more natural than adapting Hitchcock’s stories to radio?
In "Vintage Hitchcock: A Live Radio Play," three early films — "The Lodger," "Sabotage," and "The 39 Steps" — are presented as they might have been in the 1940s, with skillful actors, live sound effects and atmospheric music to keep you spellbound! Five actors play dozens of different characters, and vintage commercials add to the fun of this unique production.
Switch on your imagination, tune in to the mysterious and macabre… and have a very "Good Evening!"

A Grand Night for Singing
July 10-12, 16-19
Music by Richard Rodgers
Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II
Music arrangements by Fred Wells
Conceived by Walter Bobbie
The fruitful creative partnership of composer Richard Rodgers and lyricist Oscar Hammerstein
II spanned the 1940s and ‘50s and gave us some of the best-loved,
longest running, most successful shows in Broadway history: "Oklahoma!", "Carousel,"
"South Pacific," 'The King and I," "The Sound of Music" and many more, most of which
were also adapted to popular films.
While bursting with song and dance, the productions of this award-winning duo also featured emotionally complex characters, thought-provoking storylines, and themes that addressed social issues still relevant today, thus cementing their enduring, multigenerational appeal.
Celebrate the golden age of musical theatre with this stellar showcase of American Songbook classics, Rodgers & Hammerstein’s "A Grand Night for Singing!"
