by Norm Foster
Santa Claus tries to fulfill a child's special Christmas wish while his staff attempts to overcome a supply shortage at the North Pole. Destined to become a classic, DEAR SANTA carries us to the magical, timeless world of the North Pole, replete with offices, workshops, elves and of course, the jolly old leader himself. The efficient-but-put-upon Chief of Staff, the dizzy housekeeper, the high-pressure sleigh salesman and the shop foreman who plays havoc with the English language are all hysterically funny and yet endearing. These wacky characters keep the place running like clockwork! So who knew that one child's letter could throw a monkey wrench into all of their plans? This is a laugh-filled holiday play innocent enough for the youngest boy or girl, and entertaining enough for adults. Dear Santa is a sure fire hit for the whole family. A BRAND-NEW NON SEASON TICKET SHOW FOR THE ENTIRE FAMILY! DECEMBER 5, 6, 12, 13, 19 & 20 Fridays at 8pm Saturdays at 3pm and 8pm

Winter Season 2008-2009
The Sunshine Boys by Neil Simon November 14, 15, 21 and 22 - 2008 Al Lewis and Willie Clark played vaudeville as a team for 43 years, but mutual dislike has kept them far apart for the last 11 years. Now CBS wants them to appear in the History of Comedy, and their reunion sparks delirious comedy. This is Neil Simon at his best!
Music Book and Lyrics by Rick Besoyan January 23, 24, 30, 31 February 6 and 7 - 2009 A delicious parody of the Jeanette MacDonald-Nelson Eddy style of operetta that was the biggest Off-Broadway success of 1959. As a pastiche of the flowery operettas from a bygone era, LITTLE MARY SUNSHINE hits the mark beautifully as a wonderful addition to our turn-of-the-century Centennial Season. You'll be humming the tunes for weeks!

With his trusted companion Doctor Watson at his side, Holmes matches wits with his arch-nemesis, the evil Professor Moriarty, and faces his greatest challenge: a chilling mystery involving a kidnapped diva, scandalous letters, and London's seamy underworld. Winner of the 2007 Edgar Award for Best Mystery Play! Why go? to discover why the adventures of Sherlock Holmes continue to grip readers and audiences worldwide. Who will love this show? The whole family and your book club!
