No Exit
Nov 13-15, 17, 20-22
ICC Performing Arts Center Studio Theatre
7:30 pm, Sunday performances 2:30 pm
Jean-Paul Sartre has written a fascinating and macabre play about three lost souls in hell. No Exit, is set in Hotel Hell complete with bellboy. With surprising flashes of humor and cruelty, the interpersonal dynamics shift ceaselessly during the course of this one act play so that each character has moments of power, weakness, exhilaration, and despair. There are no implements of torture in this hell; none needed. Sartre's devil is savvy and economical: he lets the damned do all the heavy lifting.

Bullshot Crummond
Feb 26-28, Mar 5-7
ICC Performing Arts Center Main Stage
7:30 pm, Sunday performances 2:30 pm
Bullshot Crummond takes place in 1930's England, and is a wildly crazy and irreverent spoof of the popular 30's British Detective series "Bulldog Drummond." This hilarious comedy ambitiously stages thrills traditionally reserved for the move screen: exciting plan crashes, hair raising car chases, and even a naval sea battle.
When Rosemary Fenton enlists the help of Crummond to save her kidnapped father from the evil Otto Von Brunno, the arch rivals clash in a madcap tale with more disguises, plot twists and general mayhem than you can shake a German Luger at. A whole lot of laughs await you at the theatre. You don't want to miss this one! This is an evening for the whole family.

Beggars in the House of Plenty

ICC Performing Arts Center Studio Theatre
7:30 pm, Sunday performances 2:30 pm
Playwright Shanley's Beggars in the House of Plenty is a powerful story of one Irish-American family's sturggle with their inner demons. Se in the Bronx in the 50's and late 60's, Beggars is the story of Johnny the youngest and most sensitive of three siblings, who takes us on a journey through his childhood, teen years, and into adulthood, while stranded in a surreal Irish catholic household lorded over by his father, a butcher frm the Bronx and a mother who can only grant grim advice, not comfort.
Beggars is a surreal comedy packed with the wit, insight confusion, laughter, and pain that only family can bring. Fast paced, furious, and unrelenting, this highly stylized play explores the myths and reality of an Irish-American family at war with itself.
