4 GUYS NAMED JOSE
AND UNA MUJER NAMED MARIA

Four young Latino men, a chance meeting at Burrito World in Omaha, and a beautiful woman named Maria!  Even though their ancestral roots are different, not only do they share a common name, they also share a common dream: to stage a show of Latin standards!  Performed in English and Spanish, this show features some of the most evocative Latin music ever written and is brimming with the zest of life intrinsic to the Latino Culture.  From Carmen Miranda and Desi Arnaz to Ricky Martin and Santana, this hit Off-Broadway musical is a funny and passionate celebration of
 Latino song and dance.

BLACK PEARL SINGS

In the 1930's, Susannah is a "song collector" for the Library of Congress when she encounters Pearl in a Texas prison.  Descended from slaves, Pearl is a living library of forgotten folk songs and looks like Susannah's ticket to fame and fortune.  But Pearl has plans of her own, and she uses her songs as currency to negotiate her family's future.  Powerful, honest and wryly funny, this WNY Premier play traces the little-known roots of many beloved American songs.

THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY
SPELLING BEE

Six young people in the throes of puberty, overseen by grown-ups who barely managed to escape childhood themselves, learn that winning isn't everything and that losing doesn't necessarily make you a loser.  The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a hilarious tale of over-achievers' angst, chronicling the experience of six adolescent outsiders vying for the spelling championship of a lifetime.  The show's Tony Award winning creative team has created the unlikeliest of hit musicals about the unlikeliest of heroes: a quirky, yet charming cast of outsiders for whom a spelling bee is the one place where they can stand out and fit in at the same time.

Dinner Theatre package available
for ALL performances.

THIS IS ON ME - AN EVENING OF DOROTHY PARKER
A staged reading adapted by Emmy Award-Winning writer Tom Fontana

Renowned author, screenwriter and critic Dorothy Parker drew inspiration from the time in which she lived - the dazzling and daring Roaring 20's.  Her work, which earned her an O'Henry Award and two Academy Award nominations, was fueled by her endless battle with men, alcohol and herself.  Tom Fontana, having explored the dark side of human nature in his acclaimed television hits "Oz", "Homicide", "St. Elsewhere" and "The Philanthropist", is the ideal writer to adapt Parker's thought-provoking and poignant work.

Dinner Theatre package available for ALL performances.
