"Southern Baptist Sissies"
The Weekend Theater, 7th and Chester
By Del Shores.
A roller coaster of a play that takes audiences from heights of hilarity through outrageous anger, and into caves of depression and out again, this political and religious commentary is the story of four gay men in a Southern Baptist Church in Texas and the various ways they cope when they discover urges within themselves that go against the teachings of their church. The damage of religion that preaches intolerance and foments self-hatred and the repercussions of this brand of religion are seen throughout the boys’ trek from pre-adolescence to adulthood: the pain, the doubt, the self-loathing, the confusion. The script weaves together the characters’ stories inserting Bible passages that support, contradict and call into question the fundamentalists’ teachings about homosexuality. Directed by Ralph Hyman.
Fridays and Saturdays, curtain times are at 7:30pm, for special Sunday showings (Musicals only) curtain times are at 2:30pm.
Tickets: $14.00 ($10.00 for students and seniors over 65) for Dramas and $18.00 ($14.00 for students and seniors over 65) for Musicals. Tickets can be purchased at the theater with cash, check, Mastercard or Visa.

"Vital Signs"
The Weekend Theater, 7th and Chester
By Jane Martin.
With new signs of off-beat humor, rage and imagination in the female voice, Jane Martin proves again the infinite resonance of monologue form. Moving in new directions, Martin introduces a gallery of characters who shatter expectation, reinvent the ordinary and dignify the bizarre. With humor and pointed satire, the eclectic characters in Martin's play provide glimpses into the minds and hearts of over thirty complex women in this funny, unnerving, perceptive and offbeat tour-de-force for mature audiences. These monologues offer a collage about contemporary woman in all her warmth and majesty, fear and frustration, her joy and sadness. Directed by Julie Atkins.
Fridays and Saturdays, curtain times are at 7:30pm, for special Sunday showings (Musicals only) curtain times are at 2:30pm.

"The Pillowman"
The Weekend Theater, 7th and Chester
By Martin McDonagh.
A kind of macabre fable, The Pillowman is a viciously funny and savage play which tells the tale of Katurian, a fiction writer living in a police state, who is interrogated about the gruesome content of his short stories, and their similarities to a number of bizarre incidents occurring in his town. A detective story which takes unforeseen twists and turns, the production won the Drama Critics Circle Award and the Olivia Award for Best Play, and two Tony Awards. In style, The Pillowman is somewhere between the Brothers Grimm and Quentin Tarantino, with stories which return to the nightmare quality embodied in the world's original fairy tales. Dealing with the dangers of recognizing and dealing with child predators, this is not a play for children or for those easily upset by stage violence. Directed by Alan Douglas.
Fridays and Saturdays, curtain times are at 7:30pm, for special Sunday showings (Musicals only) curtain times are at 2:30pm.
Tickets: $14.00 ($10.00 for students and seniors over 65) for Dramas and $18.00 ($14.00 for students and seniors over 65) for Musicals. Tickets can be purchased at the theater with cash, check, Mastercard or Visa.

Music by Janet Hood
Lyrics and additional text by Bill RussellThis moving and dramatic and musical theater piece is a celebration of lives lost to AIDS told through free-verse monologues with a blues, jazz and rock score. With book and lyrics by Tony Award-nominated Bill Russell (Side Show ) and music by Janet Hood, this rarely seen work tells stories that are touching, heartwarming and often surprisingly humorous. The songs reflect the feeling of the living…the people who have felt the loss of so many friends and loved ones. Directed by Steve Marshall, Music Direction by Jeannie Smith.
