Tickets
Based on the Novel Freaky Friday by Mary Rodgers and the Disney films
The new musical, Freaky Friday, based on the beloved 1972 novel by Mary Rodgers and the hit Disney films (and developed by Disney Theatrical Productions expressly for licensing to theatres), features a book by Bridget Carpenter – the co-executive producer and writer on the beloved TV hits, “Friday Night Lights” and “Parenthood” – and music and lyrics by Tom Kitt and Brian Yorkey – the Pulitzer Prize-winning composers of Next to Normal and If/Then.
When an overworked mother and her teenage daughter magically swap bodies, they have just one day to put things right again. Freaky Friday, a new musical based on the celebrated novel by Mary Rodgers and the hit Disney films, is a heartfelt, comedic, and unexpectedly emotional update on an American classic. By spending a day in each other’s shoes, Katherine and Ellie come to appreciate one another’s struggles, learn self-acceptance, and realize the immeasurable love and mutual respect that bond a mother and daughter.

The Play That Goes Wrong
October 30th – November 15th
By Jonathan Sayer, Henry Lewis, & Henry Shields
Presented by special arrangement with Concord Theatricals
Director: Lisa Velardi
Highlights
From Mischief, Broadway masters of comedy, comes this smash-hit farce. Welcome to opening night of the Cornley University Drama Society’s newest production, The Murder at Haversham Manor, where things are quickly going from bad to utterly disastrous. This 1920s whodunit has everything you never wanted in a show: an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines). Nevertheless, the accident-prone thespians battle against all odds to make it through to their final curtain call, with hilarious consequences! Part Monty Python, part Sherlock Holmes, this Olivier Award-winning comedy is a global phenomenon that’s guaranteed to leave you aching with laughter!

In this holiday favorite, Charles Dickens shows us Ebenezer Scrooge as he falls asleep in his dingy, cold quarters on Christmas Eve. The old miser is visited by three ghosts, each revealing to Scrooge his wrong doings and what will happen if he continues in his evil ways. A traditional holiday classic for the entire family, guaranteed to fill you with the Christmas spirit and warm your heart.
Brink Miller reprises his role as Ebenezer Scrooge, having portrayed the character in Atlanta for over 20 seasons.
An Inspector Calls
January 29th – February 14th, 2027
By J. B. Priestley
Presented by special arrangement with Concord Theatricals
Director: Tyler Reeves
Highlights: One of the classics of mid-20th century English theatre, Priestley’s daring play takes place in an English industrial city, where an eminently respectable British family is subject to a routine inquiry in connection with the suicide of a young girl. An inspector calls on the family to interrogate them, and during the course of his questioning, each of them is implicated in the girl’s undoing. Before the evening is over, the formerly friendly and close-knit family members reveal themselves to be selfish, self-centered or cowardly – their good humor turning to acid and their fellowship to disdain.

Into the Breeches!
April 2nd – April 18th, 2027
By George Brant
Presented by special arrangement with Concord Theatricals – Samuel French Inc.
Director: Mike Fletcher
Highlights: Oberon Play House’s director and leading men are off at war with the Axis. Determined to press on, the director’s wife sets out to produce an all-female version of Shakespeare’s Henriad, assembling an increasingly unexpected team united in desire, if not actual theatre experience. Together they deliver a delightful celebration of collaboration and persistence when the show must go on!

Presented by special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI)
Director: Kristin Mazzocca
Highlights: Based on an adaptation by Christopher Bond
An infamous tale, Sweeney Todd, an unjustly exiled barber, returns to nineteenth century London, seeking vengeance against the lecherous judge who framed him and ravaged his young wife. The road to revenge leads Todd to Mrs. Lovett, a resourceful proprietress of a failing pie shop, above which, he opens a new barber practice. Mrs. Lovett’s luck sharply shifts when Todd’s thirst for blood inspires the integration of an ingredient into her meat pies that has the people of London lining up… and the carnage has only just begun!
