Find out about each show below:
As It Is In Heaven by Arlene Hutton — Opens October 8
The routine of a mid-19th century Shaker community is shaken when a young convert has an ecstatic experience. Her visions ignite a spiritual awakening and soon all the young women are receiving spiritual “gifts” that challenge religious orthodoxy. Set within the music and dance of traditional Shaker life, “As It Is In Heaven” beautifully portrays the sincere search for wonder within the life of the spirit. Needed: 9 women Directed by R. Cliff Thompson.
God's Man In Texas by David Rambo — Opens October 9
When the legendary pastor of Houston’s Rock Baptist Church decides to retire, an up-and-coming preacher answers the call to fill the great man’s place behind the pulpit. The trouble starts when the church’s aging leader clings to his own dynasty -- and his coveted 10 a.m. television broadcast. Rambo’s play balances the temptations of worldly success, empire building, and church politics with the desire for true faith and personal integrity. Needed: 3 men. Directed by David Fonville.
The Yellow Wallpaper by Gloria Albee — Opens November 12
This adaptation of Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s short story chronicles the slowly decaying mental state of a wife and mother whose well-meaning husband discourages her from writing as a cure for her “temporary nervous depression.” Feeling trapped in her bedroom, the woman discovers a figure trapped in the wallpaper of the room. Her efforts to free this figment drive her mad. A psychological thriller and a cautionary tale, “The Yellow Wallpaper” is directed by Jessica Clevenger and designed by Brandyn Graves. Needed: 4 women, 2 men.
