BAREFOOT IN ATHENS
by Maxwell Anderson
Directed by J. Clark Nicholson
November 5 - 20
Dedicated to the proposition that the only thing that is known for certain is that nothing is known for certain. The founder of Western philosophy, Socrates, ambles about about his home city-state of Athens barefoot covered with a ragged cloak -- much to the embarrassment of his family, friends and government. Possessed of no Answers, he has an endless supply of Questions. By asking these Questions, and inspiring others to ask them, he brings about his own death sentence and also opens the minds of every successive generation for the next two and a half millenia.
THE SUNSHINE BOYS
by Neil Simon
Directed by J. Clark Nicholson

This comedy 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.

A Year With Frog and Toad follows the cheerful Frog, and the rather grumpy Toad through four fun-filled seasons.
