THE SEX MANIAC
A Comedy
By Dennis Wickline
Lorraine Hudzinga is running for office, until her life is interrupted by her elderly mother and father. The elderly pair have been evicted from their nursing home because the elder Mr. Hudzinga is "a sex maniac," and has been accosting elderly women in the home. Add to that, Lorraine has not spoken to Madge, one of her sisters, since the parents entered the home. And the third sister is off with a cult somewhere in South America.

LOVE SONG
By John Kolvenbach
Is a Comedy!
Beane is an exile from life-an oddball. His well-meaning sister, Joan, and brother-in-law, Harry, try and make time for him in their busy lives, but no one can get through. Following a burglary on Beane's apartment, Joan is baffled to find her brother blissfully happy and tries to unravel the story behind his mysterious new love, Molly. Funny, enchanting and wonderfully touching, John Kolvenbach's offbeat comedy is a rhapsody to the power of love in all its forms.
October 21 through November 19

THE CHRISTMAS CAROL CAPER, SCROOGE THIS!
Another Holiday Comedy by Dennis Wickline
A production of A CHRISTMAS CAROL is interrupted when the actor portraying Scrooge (who is also the Producer of the show and a notorious womanizer) is discovered missing only 15 minutes before curtain. His 300 pound understudy must go on in his place. To make matters worse, the actress who plays Marley, and all the other ghosts, is also discovered missing and the nervous Stage Manager must go on with a script. Soon bodies appear on the set, and the local sheriff (and cast member) decides to investigate as the performance continues because "the show must go on!"

CAHOOTS
By Rick Johnston
A Comic Mystery
The setting is Ken and Jan's apartment in a Manhattan high rise, where Jan and her friend Lois are setting up for a dinner party before attending a block association meeting on neighborhood crime-a subject that has become an obsession with Lois' husband, Al. In fact, just to show how vulnerable they all are, Al, impersonating a masked burglar, breaks into the apartment via the terrace while the ladies cower in fear. Before the evening is over our concerned citizens find themselves turned into expert, if accidental, criminals, as one of their victims is killed twice and several bodies are deftly disposed of from the terrace. Filled with witty dialogue and hilarious one-liners, the play manages to maintain a farcical unreality while demonstrating that things usually do get worse before they get better-and that the vaunted dangers of street crime can pale beside the outrageous mayhem that can ensue when four "good friends" get together for a quiet dinner.
February 24 through March 24
OVER THE RIVER AND THROUGH THE WOODS
By Joe DiPietro
A Comedy About Family
Nick is a single, Italian-American guy from New Jersey. His parents retired and moved to Florida. That doesn't mean his family isn't still in Jersey. In fact, he sees both sets of his grandparents every Sunday for dinner. This is routine until he has to tell them that he's been offered a dream job. The news doesn't sit so well. Thus begins a series of schemes to keep Nick around. How could he betray his family's love to move to Seattle, for a job, wonder his grandparents? Well, Frank, Aida, Nunzio and Emma do their level best, and that includes bringing to dinner the lovely-and single-Caitlin O'Hare as bait…we won't give the ending away here.
April 13 through May 12
