Description 

Al and Willie as “Lewis and Clark” were top-billed vaudevillians for 40+ years. Now they aren’t even speaking. When CBS requests them for a “History of Comedy” retrospective, a grudging reunion brings the two back together, along with a flood of memories, miseries, and laughs. The story follows the attempt by a young theatrical agent to re-unite his elderly uncle, a former vaudevillian great, with his long-time stage partner for a TV reunion. Despite their celebrated reputation, the two old men have not spoken in twelve years. Besides remastering their sketch, the two men have numerous issues to work out before they are ready to return to the public eye. “The Sunshine Boys” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc.

Recommended for ages 13-Adult.

Description

The Vienna Theatre Company hosts the sixth year of its Theater for Young Audiences (TFYA) initiative with a special production of "Jack and the Beanstalk", for 4 matinee performances only. "Jack and the Beanstalk" is a faithful retelling of the well-known fable and is presented to encourage audience interaction. A real cast pretends to be imaginary characters, aided by a "magic keeper" who helps them tell the story. Using the device of "a play within a play," the script makes a connection to child's play and the magic of imagination!

Description

Eliza Doolittle is a young flower seller with an unmistakable Cockney accent which keeps her in the lower rungs of Edwardian society. When Professor Henry Higgins tries to teach her how to speak like a proper lady, an unlikely friendship begins to flourish. This award-winning story of a cockney flower girl transformed into an elegant lady is widely considered one of the greatest musicals of all time.
