A Christmas Carol

December 1-3 & 8-10, 2017

The Watsons Go to Birmingham

February 16-18 & 23-25, 2018
Meet the Watsons of Flint, Michigan: Momma, Dad, little sister Joetta, big brother Byron and ten-year-old Kenny.

Based on the novel that won the Newbery and Coretta Scott King Honor Book awards and told with humor from a child’s perspective, this play celebrates the power and love of family, even in the of midst of hate and tragedy.

Raggedy Ann and Andy

The curtain rises on a very special playroom where toys magically come to life!

Audiences of all ages will delight in this whimsical tale of adventure and friendship. Audition info will be posted here.
