Who is MAME? Some of Mame’s wild, adventurous spirit is inside everyone who lives for the moment and believes that “life is a banquet!” Special songs include “Mame,” “It’s Today,” “Open a New Window,” “If He Walked into My Life,” “We Need a Little Christmas,” “Bosom Buddies” and “That’s How Young I Feel.” Her life is turned upside-down, many of her priorities change, but she still lives life to the fullest. A wonderful musical comedy sure to please!

By Agatha Christie
Agatha Christie comes forth with another hit about a group of strangers stranded in a boarding house during a snowstorm, one of whom is a murderer. The suspects include a newly married couple, a spinster with a curious background, an architect who seems better equipped to be a chef, a retired Army major, a strange little man who claims his car has overturned in a drift, and a jurist who makes life miserable for everyone. Into their midst comes a policeman. He no sooner arrives, than the jurist is killed; two down and one to go. Another famous Agatha Christie switch finish!

A sensation on Broadway and in London’s West End, Lend Me a Tenor is guaranteed to leave you teary-eyed with laughter. This night is the biggest in the history of the Cleveland Grand Opera Company. World-famous tenor Tito Morelli is to perform Otello, his greatest role, at the gala season opener. Saunders, the general manager, hopes this will put Cleveland on the operatic map. Morelli is late. When he finally sweeps in, it is too late to rehearse with the company. What to do? Come see what happens in this hilarious farce!

This very funny yet very touching play focuses on the lives of four mentally handicapped men who live in a communal residence under the watchful eye of a sincere but increasingly despairing social worker. Filled with humor, the play is also marked by compassion and understanding.

By Mary Lynn Dobson
A frantically funny, Monty Python-esque retelling of the classic. This time around, the legendary legend, in his never-ending quest to aid the needy, encounters a lovely damsel in distress (oddly obsessed with skin conditions); an ever-scheming sheriff who would rather bowl a strike than hit a bulls-eye; a gold-hoarding, bad-guy monarch wannabe; and a good-natured “Town’s Guy” who manages to make his way into every scene, whether he belongs there or not.
