This is a challenging and fun experience under the guidance of professional practitioners.
Twelfth Night
A ship is wrecked on the rocks. Viola is washed ashore but her twin brother Sebastian is lost. Determined to survive on her own, she steps out to explore a new land. So begins a whirlwind of mistaken identity and unrequited love. Join us for a high-spirited romp, set among a bright world of yachts, disguises, 80’s radio, flip-flops, extended pranks and fruity drinks!

An Enemy of the People
Directed by James Gelter
An Enemy of the People by Henrik Ibsen explores what happens when an individual's scientific discovery conflicts with a collective's economic interests. When Dr. Stockmann discovers a significant health risk to the people of their beloved town, they become determined to spur their fellow citizens to take immediate action. But the unexpected resistance Stockmann meets from the townsfolk, including close friends and family, throws both the town's future and the doctor's community standing into peril.
