What becomes a legend most? For a couple of Jazz Age entertainers, it's all about fame, fortune - and murder.

When the villain, Dirty Dan, steals the mortgage money and forecloses on the Blueberry Ranch to build his new gambling casino, Ben and Martha find themselves “condemned to a life of poverty.” Their lovely orphaned niece — and our heroine, Lilac Valentine — agrees to stay on with them at the ranch and work for Dirty Dan.

Chorus Line, A
Step, kick, kick, leap, kick, touch ... again, step, kick, kick, leap, kick, touch ... turn, turn, touch down, back step, pivot step, walk, walk, walk. These words start the show and lead into the hopes, fears, frustrations, and insecurities of a group of 18 dancers auditioning for a an 8-member chorus line. Performed as a series of vignettes, the show revolves around the making of a dancer.
Cinderella
The timeless enchantment of a magical fairy tale is reborn with the Rodgers & Hammerstein hallmarks of originality, charm and elegance. Originally presented on television in 1957 starring Julie Andrews, Rodgers & Hammerstein's CINDERELLA was the most widely viewed program in the history of the medium. Its recreation in 1965 starring Lesley Ann Warren was no less successful in transporting a new generation to the miraculous kingdom of dreams-come-true, and so was a second remake in 1997, which starred Brandy as Cinderella and Whitney Houston as her Fairy Godmother. As adapted for the stage, with great warmth and more than a touch of hilarity, the hearts of children and adults alike still soar when the slipper fits.
Cinderella's Glass Slipper
This delightful large cast musical will charm audiences of all ages. Cinderella works hard in the home of her cruel stepmother. Her silly stepsisters, Brunhilda and Cleopatra, see themselves as beautiful and think the prince will marry them. Of course, the handsome prince spends most of the evening at a palace ball trying to escape from them! The story is age old, but you'll meet playful new characters in this fresh adaptation: a brave mouse, a hesitant cat and the amazing Pumpkinhead, who changes into a coach! Our Fairy Godmother has her hands full tutoring an apprentice but still makes time for Cinderella. Amazing (yet simple!) stage magic sends our heroine off to the palace ball. As we know, she loses her glass slipper as she tries to run out before the clock strikes midnight. As the ladies of the kingdom try to fit into the crystal shoe, the prince finally finds the girl he is to marry. This well-known classic is filled with songs by Bill Francoeur that create their own magic, such as the prologue "Once Upon a Time," the stepsisters' "Ladies of Fashion" and Cinderella's "Dream of Tomorrow."
