Ravenscroft by Don Nigro
November 7, 8, 14, 15, 16, 21, and 22, 2025
In this darkly comic gothic mystery set in 1905 England, a police inspector visits an isolated manor to investigate a suspicious employee death. However, the all-female household has conflicting, convoluted and mutually damning stories, making it very difficult for the frustrated inspector to discern the truth.
If everyone is lying, how will the inspector ever find the truth? A moody, atmospheric piece about one (or more?) mysterious deaths in a spooky manor on the moors, this mystery will have you guessing right up to the final curtain. The perfect puzzler for a long winter night, join us and see if you can figure out the Who, Why, and How of this clever who-dun-it.

Waiting in the Wings
February 20, 21, 27, 28, March 1, 6, and 7, 2026
Noel Coward’s gentle drama about The Wings, a Retirement home for actresses on hard times. Faded “stars” pass the days with nostalgia and board games until a new tenant arrives stirring up old rivalries. Often touching, sometimes inspiring, and always entertaining, it reminds us that, as Bette Davis said, “Growing old ain’t for sissies.”
The 39 Steps adapted by Patrick Barlow from the novel by John Buchan from the movie by Alfred Hitchcock
May 29, 30, June 5, 6, 7, 12, and 13, 2026
A wild, fast-paced adaptation of a serious spy caper from the 1930’s, this modern update is strictly for laughs – also hoots and guffaws. A seemingly inexhaustible cast of 4 play all the parts as the hero and his female partner race across the English countryside by train, plane, and automobile, to catch a spy before he escapes Britain. Join us and try to keep up!
