A Hilarious Musical Whodunit

The Global Smash Hit! | June 6-June 27

A mother. A daughter. Three possible dads. And a trip down memory lane you’ll never forget! A heartfelt, funny and vibrant musical about family and following your heart. This enchanting musical about love, laughter and friendship is set against the gorgeous backdrop of the Greek islands and underscored by ABBA’s timeless songs, including “Dancing Queen,” “Super Trouper,” “Gimme, Gimme, Gimme,” “Voulez Vous,” “The Winner Takes It All” and of course the title hit, “Mamma Mia!”

Rated PG

A New Musical direct from four sold out performances at The PiTCH!July 5-July 25 Anne Shirley is an imaginative, fiercely independent, stubborn, loving, dramatic, orphan girl – who’s constantly getting herself into unintended (and sometimes hilarious!) trouble. Her story unfolds when she is mistakenly sent to live with siblings Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert on their family farm, Green Gables and her journey continues as she finds her way within a community that teaches her lessons about family, friendship, self-discovery and what it means to truly belong. Loved by generations and perfect for all ages, this world-renowned novel by Lucy M. Montgomery will be rediscovered in this modern, bold production with contemporary choreography, ensemble story-telling and a score that blends folk-rock, pop, gospel and musical theatre.

Rated G

The New Irving Berlin Musical! | August 1-August 22 Based on the classic film, this joyous song and tap dancing musical features thrilling dance numbers, laugh-out-loud comedy and a parade of hit Irving Berlin songs including “Blue Skies,” “Easter Parade,” “Steppin’ Out With My Baby,” “Heat Wave,” “Cheek to Cheek,” “Shaking the Blues Away” and many more! Come sing and dance with us as we celebrate our 60th Anniversary with this happy go lucky, toe tapping hit. And bring the entire family! Rated G

A Zany New Musical Comedy Murder Mystery Whodunit!August 29-September 15 Everyone is a suspect in this smart, fast-paced 90 minute musical comedy whodunit. Performed by two actors, each of whom play 13 characters and virtuoso piano, these guys put the ‘laughter’ in ‘manslaughter.’ Help solve the case as you journey through suspense, hilarity, pratfalls, dueling piano playing and the perfect blend of music, mayhem and murder! Rated PG

Close our 60th Anniversary Season with this incredible tribute musical and reminisce with hit songs like “Where the Boys Are,” “Natural Woman,” “Proud Mary,” “To Sir With Love,” “Goldfinger” and more!Rated PG
