November 2026:
Present Laughter, by Noel Coward
Join flamboyant actor Garry Essendine as he fends off friends and admirers while preparing for an overseas tour. Laughter and egos clash in this fast-paced farce about fame and the absurdity of theatrical life. Filled with wit and chaos, Present Laughter is a delightful show that celebrates drama both on and off the stage.

February 2027:
Silent Sky, by Lauren Gunderson
Astronomer Henrietta Leavitt’s discoveries transformed our understanding of the universe. Inspired by true events, this beautifully written play explores ambition, love, and the struggle for recognition. Both intimate and expansive, Silent Sky is a tribute to curiosity, perseverance, and the people who mapped the stars.

April 2027:
Willow Quartet, by Joan Burrows
The end of Kim’s marriage finds her moving back to her childhood home. When she invites a visiting musician to rent a room from her, it’s not long before his charm allows her to leave her loneliness and heartbreak behind. Willow Quartet is a heartwarming tale of choices, consequences, and forgiveness.
