A classic board game comes to life when farce meets murder! Six mysterious guests, invited by Mr. Boddy for an unusual dinner party, arrive at his mansion. Intrigue, blackmail and murder are on the menu – they all become suspects when Mr. Boddy is found dead. Led by the butler Wadsworth, Miss Scarlett, Professor Plum, Mrs. White, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock and Colonel Mustard comb the mansion for clues, as the hilarity (and body count) stack up. No one is who they seem to be, and their sinister secrets are revealed as the dinner guests (or suspects) try to solve the crime without becoming the next victim!

Four badass women lose their heads in this irreverent, girl-powered comedy set during the French Revolution’s Reign of Terror. Playwright and passionate feminist Olympe de Gouges, assassin Charlotte Corday, former queen Marie Antoinette, and Haitian rebel Marianne Angelle hang out together, tell their stories, murder Marat, and try to beat back the extremist insanity in 1793 Paris. As the hope-filled French Revolution for social and political equality declined into violent terrorism, these feisty women lived boldly. This dream-tweaked comedy about violence and legacy, art and activism, feminism and terrorism, explores how we change the world. It’s historical truth, mixed with total fiction. It’s social commentary, with a raucous resurrection…that ends in a song and a scaffold.
Rated PG-13

It’s 1955, and into a dreary Midwestern town rides a guitar-playing young man named Chad, just out of jail, who changes everyone he meets. Loosely based on Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, with mistaken identities, disguises, and, of course, romance, All Shook Up is a delightful story of how we can’t help falling in love – unrequited, unfulfilled and unexpected! This delightful musical fantasy will have you jumpin’ out of your blue suede shoes with such classics as “Heartbreak Hotel,” “Hound Dog,” “Jailhouse Rock,” and “Don’t Be Cruel.”
