Fred splashes into court and turns tradition on its jeweled head, taking on riddles, royal challenges and one imperious queen determined to keep her son single. As she woos the brave Prince Dauntless, twenty mattresses and a single, squishy pea stand between true love and happily ever after. Filled with catchy songs, playful characters, fantastic locations, and humorous situations, the classic musical comedy explores themes of love, courage, and the quest for acceptance. Its charming narrative and lively performances make it a delightful experience for audiences of all ages!

Join us for a warm and witty classic comedy about Elwood P. Dowd, a charming gentleman whose best friend happens to be a six-foot-tall invisible rabbit named Harvey. When his exasperated family tries to have him committed, a hilarious series of misunderstandings turns everyone’s world upside down. Funny, heartfelt, and delightfully whimsical, Harvey asks us to consider whether it’s better to be “normal”—or simply kind.

The Trojan Women by Euripides is a powerful and timeless drama about the human cost of war. In the aftermath of Troy’s destruction, the women left behind face unimaginable loss as they await their fates at the hands of the victorious Greeks. Through their grief, courage, anger, and resilience, Euripides gives voice to those who bear the consequences of conflicts they did not create. Written more than 2,400 years ago, and newly adapted in 2026, The Trojan Women remains a hauntingly relevant exploration of war, power, and survival.

The Mystery of Edwin Drood is a rollicking musical comedy inspired by Charles Dickens’ famously unfinished novel. When young Edwin Drood mysteriously disappears, everyone becomes a suspect—and that’s where the audience comes in! With colorful characters, lively songs, outrageous comedy, and plenty of twists, the audience gets to vote on how the story ends each night. Part murder mystery, part Victorian music hall, and entirely unpredictable, Drood is a theatrical whodunit where no two performances are quite the same.
