SUBSCRIPTION NEWS!
Since re-opening this summer, the question we are asked most is “When can I get season tickets?” With the uncertainty and new developments in fighting the pandemic, we feel it is still necessary to operate a limited capacity. Therefore we can’t currently offer our traditional subscription where season ticket holders have the same seats for every show.
But we have a solution: a 2021-2022 MINI-SUBSCRIPTION. Get three shows and all the other benefits of being a season ticket holder.

JACK TALES
Using humor, freshness, and the same central character, the “Jack Tails” folklore has been handed down – father to son, brother to sister, cousin to aunt – for generations. Irrespressible Jack, the universal underdog, uses his wiles and bravado to cleverly outwit mountain country “upper-dogs” and foes, alike, in this staged collection of colorful adventures drawn from the Appalachian story-telling tradition.

THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK
For nearly two years, a young Jewish girl, her parents, and sister hid with another family in a secret attic space, as the Nazis deported the Jews of Holland to their deaths. Anne Frank’s luminous spirit shines through in the real-life diary she kept while in seclusion, allowing us to share in the complexities of adolescence – laughing and playing, fighting with her mother, falling in love for the first time – as she comes of age. Transcending the oppressive circumstances and horrors that surround her, she voices her belief, “in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.” Her story of resilience continues to resonate deeply, making her story as vital today as when her diary first was published.
