鈥淔irst Date鈥 is a musical based around the concept of a blind date. When tightly wound Aaron is set up with cool girl Casey, a quick drink turns into a hilarious dinner served with sides of Google background checks, fake emergency phone calls, a slew of bad boy and uptown girl exes, and some seriously saucy chemistry. Can this mismatched pair turn what could be a dining disaster into something special before the check arrives or end up at another table for one? The productions are sponsored by Bill and Linda Potter.

鈥淭hree Days of Rain鈥 explores the relationship between Walker, his sister Nan and their childhood friend Pip. When Walker finds a journal from his father he begins to unwind a rather mysterious past. Walker鈥檚 resolve to learn more is doubled down when the 鈥淛aneaway House鈥, a house Walker and Nan鈥檚 father Ned designed with Pip鈥檚 father Theo, is left to Pip rather than Ned鈥檚 children. The play then shifts to decades in the past when the 鈥淛aneaway House鈥 was being built. Through the eyes of their parents, we see just how distorted the views of their children are when it comes to their lives and what exactly happened in April of 1960.

William Shakespeare, the most famous playwright to ever exist, is struggling with writer鈥檚 block-- that is, until he finds a muse in a charming young woman, Viola. Through their adventures together, Will himself finally finds the means to write his greatest work ever. Of course, he will need a lot of help and even break a few laws to make his work come to life. An instant classic, this comedy explores the ideas of love, lust, mistaken identity and the struggle of a female actor being allowed on stage during this time.
