Witches!? In Salem!?
​by Matt Cox

November 6, 7, 13, 14 & 15, 2025 @7 PM
November 8 & 15, 2025 @3 PM

​

Welcome to Salem Village. 1692. It's a bad time to visit. Here, wealthy landowners want your land, local magistrates want your confession, unpopular reverends want your respect but more importantly your firewood, and everyone wants someone to be punished for something. Meanwhile, several local children try to make sense of a hysteria they find themselves at the center of. Oh! And the newest Salem villagers, the Bloodkravens are here too. They are confused, but not letting it get in their way of having a good time.

An examination of all the circumstances, societal pressures, and most importantly, the people responsible for the Salem Witch Trials. ​

Produced by special arrangement with Uproar Theatricals.​

Another Openin' is a collection of monologues, scenes, music & designs featuring the one-act drama The Invasion of Earth as It Began in Grover's Mill, New Jersey. 

For four different groups of people awaiting the radio broadcast of H. G. Wells' War of the Worlds in 1938, things go horribly awry when a news report indicates that aliens may have invaded Grover's Mill, New Jersey. As fears set in, concerns over money, conspiracies, faith, and self-defense come to a head and panic builds as everyone struggles to decide what to do next. But what if things are not necessarily as they seem? In the face of a possible catastrophe, everyone must discover what is important in their lives.

Carousel
Music by Richard Rodgers

Book & Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II

May @7 PM

In a Maine costal village toward then in of the 19th century, a swaggering, carefree carnival barker, Billy Bigelow, captivates and marries a gentle millworker, Julie Jordan. Billy loses his job just as he learns that Julie is pregnant and, desperately, intent on providing a decent lie for his family, he is coerced into being an accomplice for a robbery. Caught in the act and facing the certainty of prison, he takes his own like and is sent 'up there.' Billy is allowed to return to earth for one day 15 years later, and he encounters the daughter he never knew. She is a lonely, friendless teenager, her father's reputation as a thief and bully having haunted her throughout her young life. Billy instills a sense of hope and dignity in both the child and her mother in a dramatic testimony to the power of love. 

Produced by special arrangement with Concord Theatricals.
