The Mason Street Warehouse season begins June 25th
to July 18th with the Broadway musical, “Dirty Rotten
Scoundrels". This is a hilarious tale of conniving deception. Two
con artists, one suave and sophisticated, the other crass and
small time, end up working the same territory - the French
Riviera.
Dixie Longate, the fast-talking
Tupperware Lady, packed up her catalogues, left her children in an
Alabama trailer park and took Off- Broadway by storm! July 21-August 1.
Betty Jean, Cindy Lou, Missy and Suzy,
are four girls with hopes and dreams as big as their crinoline
skirts and with voices to match! At their 1958 prom we are treated
to classics from the 50's and 60's including "Lollipop"; "Dream
Lover" and "It's My Party". August 6-22
An Improv theatrical experience; three
actors and pianist make up a fully staged musical, complete with
songs, lyrics and choreography, ON THE SPOT! August 25-28.
