The fortunes and misfortunes of the troupe of eccentric rude jesters from A Midsummer Night's Dream who get their shot at the big time performing at the Royal Wedding in 1595.   The Popular Mechanicals bumble their way through rehearsals, mishaps and high jinks in an hysterically funny mix of verse, song, dance and mind-bending sound effects. The show will have you rolling in the aisles from curtain up to curtain down. The Popular Mechanicals is a fantastic play for all ages, a celebration of gloriously funny theatre that is guaranteed to entertain you in a most surprising way.

In David Berry's The Whales of August, it is the mid-1950s, and two elderly sisters are living out the summers of their twilight years on a small island off the coast of Maine.  Libby, at 86, is a formidable Yankee lady who is progressively shutting down each of her senses. Sarah, a romantic, at 75 is still youthful and vital, and as she watches her sister's decline she begins to grasp at a renewed hope for her own future; she can change, she can grow. As these close, endearing women search for a calm, we learn their shared and private dreams and we can feel the salt air of their wry recriminations.
