To be quite honest, it's a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. But then, everybody has bad days, sometimes. Not only does Alexander wake up with gum in his hair, but his mother forgets to pack him dessert, and his best friend decides he's not his best friend anymore. And if that's not bad enough, Alexander's brothers don't have any cavities but-he does. And just when it can't get any worse, there are lima beans for supper and -yuck!-kissing on TV. It is enough to make anyone want to go to Australia.

The age-old tale of Boy-Meets-Girl and the complications which ensue intrigue every audience, and no musical puts it on stage better than Anything Goes. This show is an amusing story wrapped around one of Cole Porter’s magical scores. Enjoy the madcap antics aboard the S.S. American as she cruises to England, carrying a Wall Street stowaway, a lovely heiress, an ex-evangelical turned nightclub singer, and public enemy number 2! This musical features some of the greatest music written by Cole Porter, including "You’re the Top", "I Get a Kick Out of You", and of course, "Anything Goes"!

Jennifer is just an average girl who re-engineers obsolete missile components for the U.S. Army from her bedroom. When she decides to meet her birth mother in China, she uses her technological genius to devise a new form of human contact. Rolin Jones' irreverent "techno-comedy" chronicles one brilliant woman's quest to determine her heritage and face her fears with the help of a Mormon missionary, a pizza delivery guy, and her astounding creation called Jenny Chow.

Frank Sinatra. He's the icon of cool - from classic elegance to contemporary "fedora" hipster. Two dynamic couples will take you from the 1940's swing era, to the bright lights of Las Vegas with the Rat Pack in the 1960s, and to his final performances in the 1990s of Ol' Blue Eyes. As Stephen Holden wrote for the 1983 Rolling Stone Record Guide: "Frank Sinatra's voice is pop music history." Come hear the songs that his voice made history.
Among the 58 songs made famous by Sinatra are "Strangers in the Night," "That Old Black Magic," "New York, New York," "I've Got You Under My Skin," "High Hopes," "Fly Me to the Moon" and, of course, "My Way."

Hilarity abounds in this portrait of three couples successively occupying a suite at the Plaza. A suburban couple take the suite while their house is being painted and it turns out to be the one in which they honeymooned 23 (or was it 24?) years before and was yesterday the anniversary, or is it today? This wry tale of marriage in tatters is followed by the exploits of a Hollywood producer who, after three marriages, is looking for fresh fields. He calls a childhood sweetheart, now a suburban housewife, for a little sexual diversion. Over the years she has idolized him from afar and is now more than the match he bargained for. The last couple is a mother and father fighting about the best way to get their daughter out of the bathroom and down to the ballroom where guests await her or as mamma yells, "I want you to come out of that bathroom and get married!"
