Notes: | Adapted from Shakespeare by David Grapes II and Robert Neblett - Original Music/Arrangements by Vince DiMura | |||||
Synopsis: | If music be the food of love, get ready for a good ol' ranch-style cookout of Shakespearean proportions, as a desert twister lands the Bard's most beloved romantic comedy in the middle of the Wild West. It's Gunsmoke meets the Globe Theatre as the delicate Viola must disguise herself as a young cowboy in order to survive in a town populated by an amorous sheriff and his barbershop quartet of deputies, a vain saloon madam in mourning, a puritanical prairie parson, and a group of drunken pranksters still fighting the Civil War. This new adaptation of Shakespeare's classic comedy promises to be a riotous mix of mistaken identity, romance and music for the whole family - all topped off with a hilarious climactic high noon showdown at the Illyria Corral! | |||||

Notes: | written by Robert Neblett and David Grapes II | |||||
Synopsis: | The traditional story of Dracula as portrayed in the 1929 Broadway play (the vehicle that brought Bela Lugosi instant fame and established him as the all-time Dracula icon) meets the somewhat suspect movie-making style of Ed Wood in this darkly funny, film noir take on the well-known vampire legend. Meet cynical, hard-drinking Detective Abe Helsing, luscious, ambitious film starlet Lucy Murray and despotic, neurotic film-maker Jonathan Harker as they take over Dr. Seward's 'Home for the Terminally Strange' to use as the latest location in which to shoot their dreadful monster movies. Unfortunately for them the increasingly violent madman Renfield and the vitriolic critic Sheriden turn out to be the least of their worries as the life is drained out of one person after another | |||||

Synopsis: | Child prodigy. Jazz superstar. Civil rights activist. Political exile. Nina Simone was all of these things, and more. One of the true divas of the 20th century and a genuine musical powerhouse, she defined a generation and defied classification. Silky, soulful, and untamed, her voice will put a spell on you. She'll melt your heart, she'll chill you to the bone. But watch out! Cross her, and she'll lash back and leave you with the blues. Summerwind Productions presents an electric new revue based on the turbulent life and rich artistic legacy of this American musical icon, sure to be a hit with audiences everywhere. The score to Simply Simone crosses genres from gospel to blues to Broadway to rock and roll, and features such definitive Simone classics as "I Loves You Porgy," "The Look of Love," "My Baby Just Cares for Me," "To Be Young, Gifted, and Black" and "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood." | |||||
