Dancing At Lughnasa – May 17 – June 9

The story of five unmarried sisters eking out their lives in a small village in Ireland in 1936. Their spare existence is interrupted by brief colorful bursts of music from the radio, their only link to the romance and hope of the world at large. Widely regarded as Brian Friel’s masterpiece, this haunting play is a tribute to the spirit and valor of the past.

The Book Club Play — May 17 – June 23

Ana lives in a letter-perfect world with an adoring husband, the perfect job, and her greatest passion: book club. But when her cherished gathering becomes the subject of a documentary film and a provocative new member joins the circle, things begin to heat up and more truths are told than anyone bargained for. A delightful new comedy about life, love, literature, and the side-splitting results when friends start reading between the lines.

During her time there, “Stephanie has continued to evolve, pulling from her love of fabric and design and incorporating those elements with new style and technique,” according to MudFire.
