Upcoming Performances

John Proctor Is the Villain (Select dates: November 8 – 17, 2024)

At a rural high school in Georgia, a group of lively teens are studying The Crucible while navigating young love, sex ed, and a few school scandals. Holding a contemporary lens to the American classic, they begin to question who is really the hero and what is the truth, discovering their own power in the process. Alternately touching and bitingly funny, this new comedy captures a generation in mid-transformation, running on pop music, optimism, and fury, writing their own coming-of-age story.

John Proctor Is the Villain is presented by special arrangement with Broadway Licensing, LLC, servicing the Dramatists Play Service collection.

WillJee (Select dates: January 24 – February 6, 2025)

When Will is faced with the impending death of his younger sister, Shay, he realizes he must do something to stop it. With a little help from a statue of St. Francis (and possibly the edibles he ingests), he connects with a miraculous power inside him that can heal his sister, but may cost him his own life. If he can only get past his mother, who both believes and doubts it all...

WillJee was developed in the Pipeline New Works Fellowship Program by Cadence Theatre Company. Cadence’s Pipeline New Works Fellowship Program aims to help Virginia-based writers create and develop new works under the mentorship of industry professionals.

Alice by Heart (Select dates: March 21 – 30, 2025)

In the rubble of the London Blitz of World War II, Alice Spencer’s budding teen life is turned upside down, and she and her dear friend Alfred are forced to take shelter in an underground tube station. When the ailing Alfred is quarantined, Alice encourages him to escape with her into their cherished book and journey down the rabbit hole to Wonderland.

Alice by Heart is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI.
