DEATH OF A SALESMAN
Firehouse Theatre
11/15-12/8/2012
The story revolves around the last days of Willy Loman, a failing salesman, who cannot understand how he failed to win success and happiness. Through a series of tragic soul-searching revelations of the life he has lived with his wife, his sons and his business associates, we discover how his quest for the "American Dream" kept him blind to the people who truly loved him. A thrilling work of deep and revealing beauty, Arthur Miller's play remains one of the most profound classic dramas of the American theatre. After a very successful recent Broadway revival starring Oscar Award winner Philip Seymour Hoffman, Death of a Salesman continues to display particular resonance with the country's current economic climate, showing that it is still relevant even now, over 60 years since it was first produced.

SHE LOVES ME
The Tower Theater
11/30-12/8/2012
SHE LOVES ME is said by many to be the perfect musical - warm and funny, with what's considered one of the most beautiful scores in American theatre history, by Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick (FIDDLER ON THE ROOF). Acclaimed since its 1963 premiere and rediscovered in a hit 1993 Broadway revival, SHE LOVES ME has captivated audiences for decades.
This romantic comedy is the story of two lovesick, anonymous pen pals, Georg and Amalia, who work together during the day, blissfully unaware that they are writing to each other at night. An endearing tale of unlikely sweethearts and the eccentric colleagues who aid and abet them, SHE LOVES ME is based on Parfumerie, the play that also inspired the Jimmy Stewart classic The Shop Around the Corner, and the Tom Hanks/Meg Ryan film You've Got Mail.
Funny, intelligent, honest and sentimental, SHE LOVES ME is a warm romantic comedy with an endearing innocence and a touch of old world elegance and nostalgia, yet as universal and relevant as ever in this age of internet romances.
