Now in Our Fifteenth Year

May 2012 - This Month

Three Cheers: More than waving pompoms, dazzling costumes, and leggy cheerleaders, Bring it On! The Musical is all about team spirit.

West Side Story: The landmark musical about the rivalry between two warring New York teenage street gangs made Broadway history.

Larger than Life: 70 horses and 50 artists lead the audience on a great journey to another world in Cavalia's pageant of wonder, Odysseo.

Simply funny: Comedienne Luba Goy takes us on a personal and loopy trip in her one-woman show, Luba, Simply Luba.

Survivors: Inspired by Puccini's La Boheme, poverty, AIDS and most of all, love in New York's East Village, Rent is a musical for the times.
