Sorority House of the Dead

It’s 1987 and the sorority sisters of Delta Pi Sigma are looking for new blood. Three newbies to the rush party discover the the sisters are “like, totally vampires.” This goofy, gory, glorious homage to the horror movies that ruled the video stores of the 1980s has it all: Big hair! Broad shoulder pads! Buckets of blood! Performances December 8-17.

Disaster! Auditions

It’s 1979, and New York’s hottest A-listers are lining up for the opening of a floating casino and discotheque. What begins as a night of boogie fever quickly changes to panic as the ship succumbs to multiple disasters, including earthquakes, tidal waves, and infernos. As the night turns into day, everyone struggles to survive and, just maybe, repair the love that they’ve lost… or at least escape the killer rats. And sharks. Auditions for this show are Sunday, December 10, 2023 at 7:00 pm and Monday, December 11, 2023 at 7:00 pm. Callbacks, if necessary, will take place Tuesday, December 12. If possible, please complete an audition form [LINK] before arriving at the theatre.

Disaster!

Disaster!

This send-up of 1970s disaster films is more nostalgic (and funnier) than catastrophes have any right to be. Never before have earthquakes, piranhas, killer bees, and tidal waves made you feel quite so much like… dancing? Get out your Gogo boots and polish up the disco ball, then strap in for fun.
