| The idea here is simple: there are naked "boys" (men, actually), and they are on stage singing. That's the gimmick of this long-running musical revue, which features musical numbers like "The Naked Maid," "The Bliss of a Bris," "Fight the Urge," "Members Only," and "Muscle Addiction." | |||||

| In 1953 Hollywood, gay life was a world of shadows, innuendo and fear. But at Mary's Hideaway, a stiff gin, a wink and a hot jazz number made it all worthwhile. Play It Cool explores gay underground life in Hollywood in the early 1950s. A young man fresh off the bus finds his way to a speakaway and meets Mary, the very butch owner of the club, who teaches him about jazz, but what she really teaches him is how to live his life. | |||||

| Too Old for the Chorus is a smart, funny musical revue about men and women who find themselves suddenly 50! Set in their neighborhood retro coffee shop, five characters express in 18 musical numbers the gamut of their frustrations and joys from troublesome relations with still demanding parents and cutting edge technology to finding delight in second careers (and second chances), getting smarter, and finally knowing that "Age is just a Number." The title celebrates life, finding fulfillment and being appreciated for exactly who you are all while getting a senior discount. | |||||
