Macbeth
By William Shakespeare
A brave soldier named Macbeth receives a prophecy that he will one day be King of Scotland. Consumed by ambition and spurred to action by his wife, Macbeth carries out a murderous plot, allowing him to seize the throne. But the couple are wracked with guilt and paranoia, which lead to darker and darker crimes, ushering the couple into the realm of madness.

The Play That Goes Wrong
By Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer and Henry Shields
From Mischief, Broadway masters of comedy, comes the smash hit farce. Welcome to opening night of the Cornley University Drama Society’s newest production, The Murder at Haversham Manor, where things are quickly going from bad to utterly disastrous. This 1920s whodunit has everything you never wanted in a show - an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines). Nevertheless, the accident-prone thespians battle against all odds to make it through to their final curtain call, with hilarious consequences! Part Monty Python, part Sherlock Holmes, this Olivier Award-winning comedy is a global phenomenon that’s guaranteed to leave you aching with laughter!

Nunsense: The Mega Musical
By Dan Goggin
The Little Sisters of Hoboken are in dire need of emergency funds after a culinary disaster nearly wipes out the convent. The nuns pull out all the stops in a fundraising variety show featuring tap dancing, habit humor, an audience quiz and a special appearance by convent cook, Sister Julia, Child of God. The clever story has an unabashed desire to make you laugh. With songs and comic interludes paced at break-neck speed, it’s a must-see musical adventure!

Regional Premiere: Walden
By KJ Sánchez
Walden was inspired by Henry David Thoreau’s Walden, and celebrates one of Earth’s greatest resources: the passion, drive and commitment of teenagers and young adults today. This play interrogates our role in the catastrophe of climate change. In so doing, it examines the tension between isolation & forgiveness and abstract principle & concrete responsibility to our fellow human beings.
