Death for Sydney Black

Death for Sydney Black represents offoffBroadway-style theatre at its best!!

Don't miss this world premiere!


Guys and Dolls

Nathan Detroit, the organizer of the oldest permanent floating crap game, bets Sky Masterson that he can't make the next girl he sees fall in love with him.

RED by John Logan
at The Gable stage at the Biltmore Until Dec 4
It is 1958 and abstract expressionist painter Mark Rothko has just landed the biggest commission in the history of modern art; a series of murals for New York's famed Four Seasons Restaurant. Raw and provocative, this 2010 Tony Award-winning play is a searing portrait of the ambition, vulnerability and agony inherent in the art of making art.


Lombardi
at The Mosaic Theatre Until Dec 4

The Mod Musical:  SHOUT!
at The Lake Worth Playhouse Until Dec 4
Shout! flips through the years like a musical magazine and takes you back to the music, the fashion and the freedom of the 60's!  This smashing revue tracks five groovy gals as they come of age during those liberating days that made England swing!  Shout! uses letters to an advice columnist, true confessions, quizzes and advertisements as a frame for terrific new arrangements of such chart-toppin hits as "To Sir With Love," "Downtown," "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me," "Son of a Preacher Man," and "Goldfinger." 

All My Sons
at The Palm Beach Dramaworks Until Dec 11

This morality play about the cost of lying and the price of truth-telling examines a troubled family and a father who placed duty to his family above the lives of others, and now must face the consequences.
